If I fail...then what? When I realized I would just pick up and go on I decided to finish...and I got a B. Go figure.
On the other hand...I took the ECE Ethics UL today. It was SURPRISINGLY difficult for me. I took the DSST ethics and got a good score.Excelsior lets you do their ethics for UL even if its a repeat of ethics....I don't know why but this is the only class they let you repeat?!. Anyway...They have scenario after scenario and the scenarios are on a pop up screen. You have to go back and forth from the questions to the scenarios...over and over. I guess it may be my touch of OCD but I found that VERY distracting. Combine that with the woman sitting in the next cubby who constantly muttered loud enough for me to hear, the guy behind me that tapped his foot and the woman next to him that tapped her desk with the mouse...INTERMITTENTLY MIND YOU....so my mind could not establish a pattern to the noise and each time she did it, it startled me. It was a VERY poor testing experience. I let them know. I did pass but it was VERY difficult.
ECE Statistics and ECE Ethics in two days. That's quite an achievement.
Congratulations!
I haven't taken any ECEs yet! So I am a bit anxious about them (I will need to take five of them). I'm sure I'll feel better once I have taken my first one, and know what to expect for the rest. But right now, I am experiencing fear of the unknown!
My name is Rob
