CLEP is a test you can take for college credits, though I'm not excatly sure how you'd get 60 credits just by taking tests. I'm guessing you're trying to get 60 to fullfill employment requirements?

Well, if you know your stuff you could challenge some classes over at the local junior college. At least they used to let you do that sort of thing.

What exactly is CLEP? Is there a site for it?

Basically you can take subject specific tests and if you get a certain score or higher you can get credits for it. Lots of colleges accept CLEP but you'd have to check with your school because they can have different rules.

Thanks for the info. I checked out the site and my college is on there as one that accepts the credits.

I wonder if they'd let me take tests for classes I already passed ;)

And what good would that do, they won't give you double credit.
