shoto: I think the DANTES and CLEP are comparable in difficulty but the DANTES are not timed. This makes a big difference for me because I don't have to stress about the clock. I took Analyzing and Interpreting Literature last week and I thought I was going to run out of time but I was able to answer all of the questions. I am taking DANTES Management Information Systems today, wish me luck!
Redleg - Good luck on your test today, I took that one a while back, I liked it (i'm a bit of a tech geek so it was nice to have an "easy" one) And, thanks for sparknotes info, I'll definitely heed the advice.
Shoto - I totally agree, I nearly fell of my chair when I took CLEP macroeco to find that I had like 8 minutes left when I finished.
I have to admit, I'm kinda stressin' about Civil War and Soviet Union. I need 15 UL arts and sciences. I bombed Money & Banking (still bitter about that) and I've got a lot riding on these two. I'm listening to Don't Know Much About the Civil War on audio book, based on someone's recommendation here on the forum and I'm getting the SparkNotes, along with my "standard" InstaCert. I take Civil War Monday AND I'm doing 2 day yoga cert class all weekend. YIKES! I haven't started studying for Soviet Union...:eek:
