CLEP Overlap

[DanK]

I'm a student at Empire State College, and I've just been told by somebody on the degree planning committee that they may not allow me full credit for some combinations of CLEP tests. Example: the claim is that since the CLEP Social Science and History test is 17% US history, then I should not get credit for the overlap with US History 1. So, the committee may decide to deduct a credit due to the overlap. The same thing with my CLEP College Math and the ECE Statistics. CLEP contains 25% statistics, so they may deduct that, too

I will not make a difference because I have way too many lower level credits, but it does seem petty. Is this normal? Has anybody heard of this occurring at ESC or another college? Do some schools get annoyed if you have allot of CLEP or other tests?

Just curious.

PS, I just passed the ECE test in Org Behavior today.
