CIT 115 Testout
The CIT 115, Computer Information Systems Fundamentals course is available to be tested out of for course credit by taking a test out exam at the IUPUI Testing Center.
It will consist of 200 multiple choice and true/false questions covering all aspects of computer and information technology terminology and concepts, including computer hardware, software, programming, the Internet, security, and systems analysis and design.
You must earn no lower than an 80% on the test overall.
Here is a list of all of the key terms from the current textbook if you wish to get an idea of all the terms that could possibly be on the test; although no where near all of the terms will be on the test, you will be able to see what sort of subjects will be covered: http://portfolio.iu.edu/wwatson/cpt115/NP6KeyTerms.doc
