A word of warning about test-out degrees.

[JBjunior]

Hmmm, I see it as your lack of experience is hurting you instead of your degree. Every job applicant regardless of where or how their degree was earned is hurt by lack of experience. It also depends on what type of jobs you are applying for. If it is a type of job where legitimate experience is more valid than a degree then you aren't going to stand a chance competing against those with proven track records.
