I was worried too!
I had no access to Instacert yesterday either. I had someone technical come over and look at the computer. It was strange because we could see other websites just fine. I have been with Instacert less than a week so really worried. Good to see it's back I am studying for an exam on April 24th.

Yeah, I started to panic a little. I startined thinking: Oh crap, what if it never goes back up. Oh crap, why didn't I hurry up and put the flashcards on word so I could study...why didn't copy down the recommendations for each of my exams into word..... LOL. Yeah, I went a little overboard.
On a side note.... Yay!! I paid my graduation fee yesterday (One step closer)....

I am glad too!!! I tested yesterday....!
I panicked as I was doing my last review for Drug and Alcohol Abuse, everything froze.
I was nervous and I considered not submitting the results to Excelsior in case I failed. In the end my last bit of confidence told me that I will pass and I did! I got a 55, good enough for an "A". et4tango 102 credits to date 18 more to go!

Loredia,
I have to confess I was having similar pangs of anxiety - I tried to logon on and off all day yesterday as I was prepping for my principles of marketing exam that I took today. I was also wondering what to study and how the heck I was going to prepare for Macroeconomics up next! As a long-term ardent fan of IC I realize how dependent I am on both the course area and the forum...there is nothing like realizing you miss something to remind you not to take it for granted!

Hey guys, you may have heard about it in the news, but there were some massive storms in Texas that knocked out power for over 100,000 people, including the company that hosts our site. It's a record for us--we were down for something like 21 hours.
Sorry for the inconvenience, and thanks for sticking with us!

Thanks for letting us know what happened Steve - this was clearly one of those things beyond your control! At least you know we love this site and really value what you are offering. Don't mean to sound corny but personally I don't think I would have embarked on this journey without IC and the forums to rely on.
So many Thanks!!
