I'm not sure why they do this (this is not just for TECEP's, it's for all courses - I just took a cc course that lets you register up through the date the class starts, why can't TESC do that??). So you kind of have to plan ahead for your TECEP's.
Regarding the study material, the TECEP page has a link to every TECEP, and if you click on it, you can get the description of the exam, which includes the textbook they've based the material on. The good news - the outline is very exacting to the material covered. And, the textbooks are usually a past edition of the textbook, saving you hundreds of dollars. I have been able to find the correct edition of every TECEP exam I need to take for less than $10 used on Amazon or another used textbook website.
The other good thing - you can order the textbook and start studying even if you aren't able to register or it's before your term starts. So, you could potentially study ahead of time and be ready to take the exam on day 1 of the term (although I think you can register with ProctorU to take it, but have to give them several days notice). But, you can still take the test very early on in the term if you're ready.
makes somewhat of sense...I just feel like I should register something so I maintain the 2015 catalog correct? even if I move at 1 tecep a term or a snails pace I want to make sure I dont have to change things around now at this hour. thanks for the tip on the textbooks...
