That is completely fine in my opinion. Either option is doable. I'm just saying principles of finance was "so far" pretty easy compared to what others have said because of my bases that I already have. On the other side it won't hurt to take Micro/Macro and the Accounting I courses first but I don't think its a huge difference because you have to learn the stuff either way. If you do Finance first then you have some base info on the other courses.

As Synicaal and I both mentioned, my son is only 17 and had ZERO experience with finance concepts prior to taking these two courses - I think you'll be fine going from personal finance right to principles of finance. My son is planning to take both of his accounting courses at Straighterline because he likes their format a bit better.
Has anyone taken HR Management at Study.com?

Thatâs a great question! We do have several courses slated to be reviewed in the coming months, and a few are in the business and finance areas. Weâre constantly getting more courses recommended by ACE, so if there are additional courses youâd like for us to develop and have reviewed, please send along the course names.
Weâre also working on finalizing the transfer guide with Thomas Edison now; itâs taking a little longer than we anticipated, but weâre hoping to have it up soon.
Please let us know if you have any additional questions. Thank you!

I would. If I was suggesting an order for someone to take courses for the BSBA, I would say Macro then Micro, Financial Accounting then Managerial Accounting, Stats, and then Financial Accounting after all of those were completed. But if you take them out of order, it won't kill you, going in this type of order just kind of makes things easier.

Personal Finance has almost nothing to do with Principles of Finance.

Employment Law and Change Management are the two we're most hoping you add - thanks!

The course you mentioned is available cheap at other providers.
I would recommend any other Business Courses not offered by your competitors.
Or higher level courses that are 300-400 level, so the cost ratio is cheaper.
