So all in all, not *that* much more than other places. For me, Pearson testing centers are closer to my house than CLEP or DSST ones are, so your mileage may vary on that one too but it's a non-issue for me.
Teceps let you take them at home and 52 by far the easiest option, but of course it depends on what you need the credits in
Wait why did they charge you $20? I’m just seeing 2 costs of $110 and $52

You will see that they charge an extra $20 per course credit or exam for a "technology fee."

Yes, I've taken TECEPS. I took Public Relations and Environmental Ethics and Liberal Arts Math, I think. The format is very similar to Study.com finals. You take it at home with ProctorU
My review of the math one is here:
