I need help to determing which tests to study for
#1
Hello One and All,

Like so many here, I am completely new to the whole concept of getting a degree by testing out, and have done quite a bit of research up to this point.

Unfortunately... with too much information there is a tendency for confusion (at least for me) and at this point I was hoping that some kind person would lend some advice and knowledge to help me get started on the right foot...

I understand that I can take the tests and bank the credits until I am ready to enroll and complete the degree, but I'm not sure which college would be to my advantage. TESC, or Excelsior SC...

Also, I am 53 years old, and when I was in high school I was an average student. I'm not so confident in my abilities in some areas of study, (namely mathematics and science) and would like to start off with an Associate in Liberal Arts degree, and keep the degree as simple as possible. I have been to both college sites to look for the required courses to complete the degree and that is where I hit the wall!

At Excelsior I never was able to find a list of classes for that degree or anything closely resembling it, and at TESC, I was able to find information listed below.

Associate in Arts Credit Distribution

Subject/Category Credits
I. General Education 48
A. English Composition 6
B. Humanities (must include two subject areas) 12
C. Social Sciences (must include two subject areas) 12
D. Natural Sciences 9
One college-level mathematics course (required) (3)
One computer science course (strongly recommended) (3)
Other natural sciences/mathematics (3)
Must include at least two subject areas
E. General Education Electives 9



II. Free Electives 12

Total: 60 credit

With the above information... would some kind soul be able to help me determine which CLEP tests and/or other tests I will need to study for and receive an AA degree?

I will thank an and all replies in advance...

Sincerely,

Kevin
