tampalizard,
I am half way through my degree at this point. I decided to take DANTES Statistics on April 17th. This exam (like all math-related exams) scared the heck out of me. I specifically chose to do it now so that I can either get it out of the way once and for all, or take it again six months from now if need be.
I haven't got my results yet!
If I pass, it will be a huge burden off my shoulders. If I fail, I know I can take it again in six months without having to put the rest of my degree on hold.
The next scary thing for me will be taking my first ECE exam. I have found my groove with the CLEP and DANTES exam. I know how to study for them, I know how to take them, I know how long it takes to drive to the test center, I know what the computer software looks like, I know what the paper exams are like, I know the faces of the people I will see at the test center...I feel very comfortable taking CLEP and DANTES.
Everything will change when I take my first ECE exam. Different test center, different software, different people, different exams! It's the 'unknown' which makes me nervous. I doubt I will be so anxious though, once I have taken that first ECE exam.
My name is Rob
