“ I wish I knew about this 10 years ago - This might be the best kept secret in Education.”
“ I was going to drop out of college after my first year. I had to work and could not handle doing it all. I graduated 6 months after discovering how to test-out.”
“ As soon as I learned about this, I studied for two nights and took an exam that gave me 6 college credits. I studied the next week and took three exams that gave me another 12 credits. I thought I would never get a college degree and now I see that I should be finished in less than a year.”
“ In three months I had banked over 60 credits - that is the equivalent of two years of college work. I study an average of two hours a night, three nights a week.”
“ I dropped out of college with only 15 credits to go to get my degree. Everyone told me that the credits were worthless after 15 years. Mine were over 25 years old. Everyone was wrong. I got full credit for my 105 credits completed and I tested out of the remaining 15 credits in less than 4 weeks. Now I have my Bachelor's degree. I am so proud.”
