For Ethics, I would ask if DSST Business Ethics counts as it has a very high pass rate.
For Nat Science, Take the CLEP Nat Science and the DSST Environment and Humanity
For Social Science, CLEP American Govt and CLEP Sociology were easy
For Humanities, take CLEP A&I Literature or if you speak Spanish take CLEP Spanish
For Math, take CLEP college mathematics, DSST Stats and maybe Calculus
For Arts and Science electives, look into the various CLEP/DSSTs that fall in that category (biology, phy sci, art of western world, Lit, etc)
I don't know what counts for technology, but there are few ECEs you can take and you can see if Technical Writing DSST counts.
CLEPS Passed: 10 DSST Passed: 11 TECEPS: 1

Don't waste time by trying to save time. The only sure way to complete your degree is to knock out credits quickly and efficiently.

Don't let easiness bite you in the rear. Know your endgame (where you want to be) and plan backward from there. Your education is a means to an end.

Be honest professionally, socially and academically. There are people (especially little ones) who look up to you and they're going by your example.

Be proud. Whether you're an Engineer or Fast Food worker, there is honor and dignity in hard work.

Picking on people weaker than you only proves that you are a weak person.

Also give Straighterline a look if you feel that any of these subjects might be too much for you to test out of. It's quick, easy and the courses transfer to all of the Big 3.
BA in History, TESC, Graduated September 2010

Even though My business is not to ever certain exactly how much credit ratings many people let in by means of move. According to the prior remarks above this Huge a few would be the nearly all credit ratings generous colleges but when most of your own credit ratings is usually nationally certified it might definitely not end up being good to a person while they simply agree to local credit ratings.

Is this a bot?? All of Loren's responses are incoherent.
