Managerial Accounting for Excelsior--no exam???

[joikd]

Excelsior requires Managerial Accounting for a Business Degree, but I can't find any CLEP or DSST tests for this. Is there going to be a new test any time in the next six months? If not, what's the easiest alternative (no class)?

I wouldn't expect any exam to appear in that time frame. I took the Penn Foster College course, which culminates in a proctored exam. It is self-paced, and can be completed rather quickly, but it is a serious and rigorous course. The final proctored exam is open-book, but it's written-answer, not multiple choice, and the time limit makes it quite a challenge. The course is very reasonably priced, and the course fee includes the textbook and workbook.

You can also take a Managerial Accounting course at your local community college, but that is less likely to have as flexible a schedule as the Penn Foster College course.

It was cheap.. not too difficult. Everything was done via blackboard.

the $25 fee + $248 ?

There's no ECE, DSST, CLEP, DANTES or TECEP for this course that I'm aware of.

There is one other similar option from Ohio University, though:
Ohio University Course Credit by Examination

I'm thinking about taking that route for Management Accounting, but using the Demystified series book alongside whatever recommended texts from OU.

i would tell other people to take the course i did... it was simply a message board like this... i bought the book off of Half.com for like $3 dollars (old version). there was one report, a midterm (with a curve) and a final. you need to find a proctor for the exams though.. (u can use a library, school, or a military base
