New Alma - College plans
#1
I've been using New Alma to keep track of my classes. Their information is actually very well organized and it has helped me keep track of the classes that I need to take for the specific degree that I want. Both my daughter and and I are working towards our BS and this is actually the best program I've found that tells me step by step what to do without guessing or having to pay for classes that I don't need. They've done the work for me and made it easier to get started. Just wanted to share this information because it has really helps us a lot. Highly recommended. And no, I am not selling anything. Just sharing. Has anyone used them in the past?

Hrm, is this another company that repackages the free information we provide here and sells it for an insane amount? From the description on their site I don't understand what they're offering.

Oh yeah, not cheap either, I created an account and you get to see the degrees (tesu bsba being the first lol) but not the plans without paying 1k

I think this might be an ad to be honest, selling coaching? Ok, but repackaging plans from this forum for 1k........

I am torn whether or not to remove the link at least since it is effectively an ad. It is relevant to the forum, but it seems wrong to suggest that people look at that when they can get free coaching and advice here, and if they're nice to dfrecore they can get a degree plan for free as well. There really isn't anything offered by that site that they cannot get here.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Anyone who is seriously interested (doesn't want to work with folks here for free) will be able to look up the site themselves.

I'm somewhat always curious about those, it follows basically all the basic rules you see with Alex Becker and Tai Lopez, just way more sloppy. The marketing site is actually not too bad and follows the same big headlines/get the guy in the process. However, the videos are pretty bad, the member's area isn't great either, it should have at least some free resources, an example plan. Imagine you pay 1k and get an excel sheet, that would be pretty bad!

This forum is one of those outliers, free information, free help, I'm grateful it exist.
