Fast, Easy, Economical Credit by Examination
When I started my credit by examination page (years ago) I focussed on the somewhat obscure DSST exams, thinking, "Everybody knows about CLEP." Besides, the DANTES option was a lot cheaper.
Well a lot of people know CLEP exists, but the College Board site is hard to navigate, and arbitrarily places a lot of the information students really need in their "teachers and administrators" section. Besides CLEP and DSST cost about the same now.
Anyway, the CLEP section isn't nearly as "fleshed out" as the DSST pages, but they contain some valuable links, and I'll be working to get them up to speed in the coming weeks. There are at least a few textbook suggestions, something the College Board neglects.

I've never quite been sure what distinguishes a blog from a regular webpage. Timeliness seems to have something to do with it, but that doesn't seem to be a hard and fast rule.
