Well, I just took the Public Speaking DANTES yesterday. YIKES! haha I read all the posts I found here on the forum. And I studied the resources many of you suggested. So thank you, thank you for that. I really do appreciate all the info and hints people provide!

And, actually, my topic for the speech was not one of the ones on here. I had to support the position of a 12 month school year. They did not give me the option of being against it. And they also told me who my audience was.

As for the multiple choice part. Like everyone else has said, know the different kinds of speeches, know the terminology. And you'll be all set.

The best resource I used was The Art of Public Speaking I had actually bought a textbook, The Elements of Public Speaking, and I realized as I compared the contents of these two books, that they're very much the same. And this one is online and free. And really, you only have to read the summary of each chapter. They also have study questions and flashcards that were very helpful.

So now comes the wait. We'll see. [/SIZE]

Has anyone out there tried the Chemistry CLEP? Any tips to offer? It's a little bit daunting for me considering my rusty science skills....

The validating question for this whole "Is-distance-learning-accredited?" discussion: do you have a personal testimony or do you have any friends/family/classmates who have graduated with a distance learning degree and landed a good job?

Has anyone out there ever taken a NY Language Exam? A little different than CLEPs or DANTES, I've heard. From what I understand, NY Language Exams are for those atypical collge langage course (i.e. Chinese, Arabic, etc.). The three portions to the test are reading, writing and listening, and one may earn 6-16 (???) credits. Anybody with experience?

how do you take an AP exam? There are only 2 that I would want to take but I can't seem to find anything on here about them and I am wondering if its even possible to take the exams. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I've been studying from the Instant Cert exams for a while now, and I've recently switched to the Peterson's. Anyone else find the difficulty of the Peterson's huge compared to the ICs? I feel like I am drowning on these tests!!

I've been studying for the macroeconomics CLEP for a few days now. All my other tests (mostly history) have forced me to review information and just remember facts, but this one is forcing me to really think out new information. My brains feel totally fried. I took economics in high school ten years ago, so some of the basics are familiar to me, but a lot of this is new. Especially all the terminology. My test is in a week....I really hope this all comes together for me in that amount of time. What do you think? Is a week enough time to get this down pretty solid?

My biggest problem is all the graphs. I'm a very visual person, so I ought to like graphs---I can't figure out why they confuse me so much. But they do. Does anyone else have this problem or should I meekly retire in Abject Ignorance and console my Ignorant Self with some chocolate?

Trying to perservere.....

I don't know if I am the only person to take this test of late, but what a freaking case of carpal tunnel syndrome I have from this bugger! 3 essays in less than 3 hours! I haven't actually done handwriting in years, I had assumed this was going to be the computer version. I can type around 35 words a minute, so when the proctor said that the computers were down....
I think by the end of this thing I could barely read my own handwriting! I have never wanted to quit in the middle of a test sooooooo bad in my life! I must have spent 15 minutes evaluating my life before I could soldier on and finish my second essay. By the time I got to essay number 3, I was a blithering idiot. I could barely get my wrist to move. Here's hoping that ECE gives credit for effort.

I don't have good thoughts on how well I did on this one. Has anyone here actually failed this thing??!?!?
