Just wondering who all has tested out of courses using CLEP or DANTES etc.? Did you find certain subjects easier than other?

I am currently a LPN student and have several pre-req's done for the RN program, but I am considering trying to test out of MICRO, Psychology & Ethics.

And how about College Algebra? Especially if you haven't taken algebra in like 8 yrs! Possible with enought study guides & practice CD?

Any feedback or thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks

Check with the school to see what they will take. I've done 3 english cleps and sociology. Love them but I think the ease depends on your areas of strength. I figured if nothing else I've only lost $60. I used their study guide for practice questions. Good luck.

I agree - English & sociology are the easy ones.

Yeah, the one I'm doubting myself on is the Algebra. I will probably suck it up and take it in class.:yawn:
