My parents read the Accelerated Distance Learning book (I think that's what it's called) and my older brother got into taking CLEP's. He's just about gotten a BS in Biology from Excelsior with the mixture of his traditional classes and CLEP's, Dantes, GRE, etc. Anyway, he kinda started the trend, and I just finished (today!) CLEPing all the core requirements I could for my ADN in nursing from a community college. I'm homeschool too (nice to see another one on here, ViolinGirl! I'm 17 
), graduating in the next few months, and thanks to the CLEP's I'll be finishing up all my prereq's and coreq's this semester and then will apply to nursing school. I've done dual-credit classes for several years now. I think CLEP's are awesome... although I've had a few people tell me they think it's "cheating" to test out of a college class. :mad: Bologna.
I play/teach violin too, so that's kinda funny. I TRIED to get that name (ViolinGirl) on here!! hilarious
