The reason most respectable colleges don't list majors on diplomas...

[Yenisei]

I greatly appreciate your feedback and recommendation. The only reason I shifted to LS gear was because it was my understanding that you couldn't test out of the majority of things for BSBA and BA, Nat Sci/Mathematics. If it takes me an extra month or so, I'm totally open to it, but from what I am concluding it would take me longer. Perhaps I am overlooking something.

Burbuja sent me a nice list that is making a lot more sense now than it did before. I am going to have a look at it when I get home. The Nat Sci/Math will still take me at least until the very end of this year. *sigh*

You do have a point. If another degree takes only a month or two extra then I am going to go for it. It was my understanding that they would not.

PS. How was majoring in Economics? Was it hard? That wouldn't look too shabby on a resume either right? I hear that it's difficult, however. I know that's subjective.

I'm pretty sure I provided you a potential path to the Nat Sci degree which maximized testing, but it's true that it is not possible to test out of all of it. You can test out of quite a bit of it, though (for example):

LL

CLEP Biology 100 level 6 credits OR
DSST Intro to Computing 100 level 3 credits AND
DSST Astronomy 100 level 3 credits
UEXCEL Calculus 200 level 4 credits
DSST Environment and Humanity 200 level 3 credits


UL

DSST MIS 3 credits
ALEKS Business Statistics 3 credits (technically not testing out but not exactly taking a class, either)


You may also be able to use the Network Technology TECEP as UL credit and possibly ALEKS Intro to Statistics as LL credit (be sure to check with others on that, though). If that's the case you would only need 9 UL credits worth of classes to get the degree- everything else can more or less be tested out of.

I found economics easy, but others' mileage varies. It's a good substitute for a finance major and it's a great major for those going on to law school or MBA studies because it stresses thinking logically and it is, for the most part, a fairly quantitative discipline (not all courses are though). It does look good on a resume, IMHO.
