Today, Katie took her third CLEP test.  She had already taken Biology and College Algebra, but when she looked at the topics to be covered on the Chemistry test, she realized that she had only covered about 1/4 of them in her high school chemistry course.  After cramming like crazy (some 16 hours), she took the practice test and received a 40.

Not so bad as you might think.  The scores range from 20 to 80, with many schools offering credit for a score over 50.  Her principal, teacher, guidance counselor, and career adviser (all both of us) met with her last night to help her decide whether on not to take the actual test - scheduled in Springfield for 10:00 AM this morning.  She decided to go for it, and she scored a 51.  We think she made a good choice to proceed with the test. 

Now I need to schedule a time for her to take American History 1 and Jessica to take College Algebra, hopefully in conjunction with their next ortho appointments.
