Default Milestones!!!

I'm getting Vastly Excited!

Today I took the DSST Organizational Behavior (very easy exam, especially if you've taken Principles of Management) and scored 69. It was my last exam to need IC for....(*sighs nostalgically* ). And I am now into SINGLE DIGITS!

I have one DSST left (Modern Europe Since 1945) and am currently enrolled in a 6-credit history class at TESC. Another 2.5 months and I'm DONE!!!!!

*Boinks up and down*

*Celebrates with a fistful of chocolate*

*Tries not to think about tackling the Modern Europe exam WITHOUT InstantCert*

Default Watch for falling bricks!...

...That is because the wall is about to come tumbling down. It's an all out mad dash from here! Keep up the momentum! So I gotta ask; how do you plan on celebrating as soon as that LAST passing DSST score is displayed on the screen? OK good luck and charge on!

I'm gonna go to Dunkin Donuts and get a French Vanilla Coffee Coolatta on the way home.

My sister is going to be finishing the same time as me and our family is going to a fun homeschooling reunion wingding in Kentucky as our graduation fling.

Thanks for the congrats!

Yes, the exam is very easy. I went through each of the IC sections about 3 times and did the practice test in the DSST book and that was it. If you've done any of the Mgmt/Supervision/HR Mgmt stuff, you'll be fine. I wasn't even remotely stressed while taking it. It's ext-uh-remely doable.
