You may want to see how you do on the test before you choose a school..while CO does give 18 credits for a 40% on the GRE (I am not 100% if it is 12 or 15 LL)..You can earn 30 at Excelsior if you score 80%tile or above, someone on here did it in Nov and there is someone who got full credit for Psy GRE taken Oct AND she is taking Lit in April,so it is doable. I am sure she would be happy to pass info tips etc along.
My point is if you have a 40%,CO will max credit...Excelsior knocks off 3 credits for each 4.5 drop in score ie 75%=27,then 71%=24. The break even point is 53%, that is where you get a matching 18 from EC, then any over that at CO does nada but at EC every 4.5 up is another 3 credits...and upper level at that !!
The best is if you get that 80, you will only pay 130 bucks..thats 4.30 a credit
