Default Unofficially done!

Today, I took and passed my last examination for the BS degree at EC. I just wanted to thank IC and everyone participating in this forum for the tremendous help and support. I will forever be promoting this road to getting an undergraduate degree and IC as the number one tool to reach it.
Like many here, I discovered IC indirectly and after spending days reading posts and comments, I was motivated to jump in [this was the most important step] to my first CLEP on August 8, 2007 - the rest is history.
Special thanks to Shotojuku, BasketWeaver, Cinderely and those of you who patiently answered questions, provided guidance, insight, great feedback and even laughs during this wonderful journey.
I'll be taking a break from the books for a couple of weeks. In the meantime, I'll be researching the different options for the next endeavor: Graduate School.
Thanks again and SALUD everybody!!
Mateo

Right now I'm studying w/InstaCert w/2 kids singing in the background. Can't wait till I can post like you. Good luck in the future and if in any way anything I posted helped........that'll be $19.99.

I discovered IC indirectly and after spending days reading posts and comments, I was motivated to jump in [this was the most important step] to my first CLEP on August 8, 2007 - the rest is history.

This is exactly how I got into it!!

Special thanks to Shotojuku, BasketWeaver, Cinderely and those of you who patiently answered questions, provided guidance, insight, great feedback and even laughs during this wonderful journey.


Yep they're pretty darn cooL! These boards would be hurtin' without them!

Hello everyone and thanks a lot!!!!
Those of you who are not done yet, don't take your eyes of the goal.
I'm already feeling a void by not having to go over some flashcards tonight...
Hey Gary, I have the $19.99 for you. I hope you take monopoly money... for some reason it didn't work with EC, so I have may even send you an extra $5.00...
Thanks again.
