Why Charter Oak State College is better than Thomas Edison State College
sanantone Wrote:You don't need to take TECEPs to complete the full degree; you only need to take enough to meet the residency requirement. The rest of the degree can be completed however you want. You don't need to take any of Saylor's exams to study for a TECEP or any other test that is not a Saylor test. You just need to read the links and watch the videos. However, you're advocating for practice exams, but you have a problem with Saylor's quizzes. That doesn't make any sense.

Sure, but again taking a full course is slower versus just studying a few pages, doing an official practice test or two, reading some feedback (you claim it's inaccurate, I say it's not because I've recently taken the tests and the forum advice even from years ago was still extremely helpful/spot on). If I want to take a course, I'd rather take StraighterLine course where it's $100, and the work I'm doing gives me credit. Going through Saylor you'll still have to spend dozens t hundreds of hours to complete them but with no guarantee that you'll pass the exam. With Straighterline, at least you can pass even without the final.

More importantly, if TECEP prep materials come out by instantcert.com, they are good, and enough students take exams and give enough feedback to give an idea how the exams are like, then more power to TECEP exams. When that day comes, then I'll gladly endorse TECEP exams 100% (and I'm not against taking TECEP exams in general, sure there are some easy ones here and there - but I'd imagine you'll hit a stumbling block after 1 or 2).
