Penn Fosters Info Literacy help :)
I just signed up and took the exams myself. From start to finish, It took me like 1.5 hours. The questions are fairly simple based off the 112p reading material that is in PDF format for the first test. The second test is applying what you learned in the first section and actually using the web to find your answers. It's an "open book" test so you are given more than enough time to look stuff up if need be. Hope that helps!

LPN-RN EC pre-req questions??
So I just earned the easiest A ever with Penn Foster for Info Lit. The cost was $70, thanks for the tip! If only all online courses/exams were that easy. l0l With the CLEP exams, the process is to purchase the study guide, study, schedule/pay for exam and be done?

LPN-RN EC pre-req questions??
Hello. I have been lurking the boards for the past month gathering information regarding a LPN-RN program. I have learned a lot from your threads, so first of all THANK YOU =) Secondly, I am taking my first steps into doing the EC program. I have submitted my transcripts and have received the "unofficial" transcript summary. I am lacking A&P, Micro and Psych. I have seen on the boards that tothers have "CLEP" out of these courses. Question 1, was that through EC? I have also read where folks are directed to "straightliner.com". Question 2, is this the most cost efficient route? Question 3, are study guides given to prepare for exams? Question 4, what study materials would be recommended for these 3 courses? Question 5, how much study time should one give themselves prior to scheduling the exam? I am a single mother of 3 kiddos, work fulltime and juggle the kids' extracurricular activities. I need something that is managable and cost efficient in order to not have to retake exams. I cannot budget for failure. I have never done any sort of independent study, and at times can be a proscastinator. However, I need to get this done sooner rather than later. So once i officially start there is no holding back. Any advice or expertise would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
