NRRPT
wlrun3@aol.com:
...back to back calc I & II by paper correspondence course with graphing calculator thru univ kansas...16 lessons and two exams per class...
...challenge comp II thru thomas edison state college examination program (tecep)..." English Composition II...This test calls for the demonstration of basic writing ability in English, requiring the writing of a short research paper, using materials provided. It is evaluated on the basis of organization, grammatical correctness, clarity of expression, and appropriateness of style. This exam fulfills the second three credits of the College's English Composition requirement."

79 SHs toward a BS degree in Health Physics. Which looks like they only gave me ten hours for the NRRPT, but I actually received 19. To make this short - not all of the credits I had were transfered and I already had most of the upper level (core) classes completed.

Go to Excelsior and see what they offer. Make sure TESC knows that you will take the better deal. They have a significant amount of leeway for the actual classes they consider equivalent. It sounds like they determined many of the credits were duplicated; if they use their leeway they can at least give you credit for an elective.

The one class I didn't get the NRRPT credit for (that really eryethema'd my...) was for Radiation Effects. Before you ask - yes I complained, but my "mentor" said they did not give credit for this class with the NRRPT (if anyone has actually received this credit let me know so I can "complain" some more).
So, in my case the NRRPT did help (19 hrs that I don't have to take).
I start English comp II and Calculus next month...

I had to take the Radiation Effects class. It was the only one I did not get credit for from passing the NRRPT. Jump in and take it. If you have questions, I just completed it and could "guide" you through it rather painlessly.

While the CDs and Classes all convienently group the study material you can acces a number of web sites and study on line for free. It does take a bit of time, but not many people I know will sit down and take the entire exam bank in one sitting.
The exam is not difficult, although I thought the toughest parts were concerning the medical field.
Good luck to all who seek the NRRPT.... it can only help you down the road. But never stop studying..... keep the ol noggin pointed :D
