GRE Countdown!

EDIT: Well, I called and I forked over my $12 to get my results, and what a huge disappointment it is: 650/63%...

...I talked with an EC advisor and it looks like my score would be good--unofficially-- for 21 credits (12 LL, 9UL)...

I think this is a great score! Earning 21 credits--and 9 upper level!!! (I thought it would be 12LL and 6UL, but it's always up to EC) and you did it for about a third of the price of one ECE which would only be worth 3 or so upper level! It's amazing, really.

I still think that this test is good bang for the bucks, from 12 credits up.

Agreed. I especially think this test is worth it for any score above the 55th-ish percentile, you get 3 upper level credits and fulfill a depth requirement with one exam at that point. It's worth taking a chance on it just for that, imho.

I'm sorry I don't have any suggestions for your dilemma, if it were me I'd just take all the upper level DSSTs and get out with a cheap major in Liberal Studies, then focus on something more specific in grad school. Even if you do decide to take one $1000 class, you saved so much money with the credits you earned from the GRE that you overall cost should still be quite low, compared to what you'd have paid without the GRE.

Good job, congratulations!
