    Since I liked your video, we wanted to share that our boy (15) passed the college composition clep! Here is a tip for other parents: if your kid tells you they didn't quite finish the second part (the last writing assignment), do NOT panic as you wait for results hahaha. I was pleasantly surprised to see a 61, although the writing was not finished. So that is like a 76% right? But it is sent to a college just as a yes/no (accepted or not according to their requirement) right? Pensacola Christian requires only a 50, I'm not sure about other schools.

  • @paigemama5904
    @paigemama5904 Před 9 měsíci

    Still confused. My son did modern states and has the voucher. The written portion- will he be given some random topics? At that point is there literature attached so THAT he can say author, pg# ? He only used modern states so this has me nervous.

  • @Kikis_Corner
    @Kikis_Corner Před 10 měsíci

    This playlist is amazing!! Thank you. I just have one nagging question. Before they get to the pre-tests and studying from the book, what curriculum are you having them study to prepare? Basically what’s the best way to fast track the whole process!? Like how do you ensure the curriculum you’re teaching is going to align with the testing that they will be doing?

I'm a junior this year and will be graduating with my associates degree in May. My younger sister is in ninth grade and is studying for the Biology, Government, and American History 2 CLEPs. She's already taken and passed a handful of other CLEPs.

      Hey, sorry I missed this question. Check with the school your student wants to attend to see if they accept CLEP credit. If they do, the College Composition CLEP should take care of Eng 101.

    Great videos! We don't know where our kids will attend college and I saw some colleges have an asterisk by the Life and Physical Science General Ed requirements that says "Life and Physical Sciences must include both a lab and a lecture." Does that mean that they won't accept Bio CLEP for a gentle ed requirement? They have taken Bio honors at our high school. Thanks!

    • @amyhawn7735
      @amyhawn7735 Před 3 lety

      CLEP sciences do not transfer as containing a lab component. I would say the CLEP would not satisfy that college's requirements.

    • @amyhawn7735
      @amyhawn7735 Před 3 lety

      It will take some patience. The best thing to do would be to have her take the practice test from the CLEP Study Guide book and use her score as a gauge for study. I would think 4-8 weeks depending on her motivation and comprehension.

    Most of the PSEO courses offered in the colleges we have begun looking at are the gen ed courses. So if we are able to CLEP out of them, what courses would a student take in PSEO? What college are you working with that has upper level credits they can earn as a high schooler?

    • @amyhawn7735
      @amyhawn7735 Před 3 lety

      For an Associates of Arts and Sciences the student needs 60 credits. We did roughly 35 of them PSEO and 28 CLEP. I have spoken both with the U of M system and the MSU system here and they have both said my 12th grader can take upper level classes for his last year of PSEO as long as there is room.
