Quote:What an interesting group. They were savvy enough to attempt CLEP exams for college credit yet somehow apparently don't know how to type "CLEP" in a Google search. A lack of accessible test prep. info????
I nearly broke the skin while biting my tongue. I really felt like saying "Did you ever considering googling "clep preparation" or "credit by examination" or typing "clep" into the amazon search box." Many of these people were b & m graduates. It just kind of blew me away, especially considering that these people likely had to research a variety of topics as part of their studies, not to mention that some of them were graduate students.
Quote:Thanks for going out there and representing for the ICers.
You're welcome!!! They paid me a $100 for an hour and a half, fed me, gave me some sodas... I have to hand it to the college board; while the clep software may look like a relic from 15 years ago they do hire some top notch people to do their market research.
