Seeking input on my BSBA degree plan
#1
Hi everybody. I found out about testing out a few months ago and have since been reading and researching this forum. I think I have a workable degree plan, but would love any and all input on t it and on anything else you think may be helpful to me. My goal is complete my BSBA degree requirements by the end of December 2012, and pick up the AAS in Environmental, Safety, and Security Technologies along the way. I work full-time and also have a 2 hour each way commute. Fortunately, an hour of that commute is by train and I can study on the train. Here's my plan.

BSBA General Management Degree Plan

I. General Education Requirements - 60 credits

A. English Composition - 6 credits
College Composition - CLEP (6)

B. Humanities - 12 credits
Business Communications - Straighterline (3)
Spanish - CLEP (9) [partial credit]

C. Social Sciences - 12 credits
Principals of Macroeconomics – Straighterline (3)
Principals of Microeconomics – Straighterline (3)
American Government - CLEP (3) or Living in the Information Age – TESC class (3) for GPA
Fundamentals of Counseling - DSST (3) (have it transcribed as PSY-331)

D. Natural Sciences & Mathematics - 9 credits

Trigonometry - ALEKS (3)
Statistics - ALEKS (3)
Race to Save the Planet - DSST (3)

E. General Education Electives - 21 credits

Analyzing and Interpreting Literature - CLEP (6)
Spanish - CLEP (3) [partial credit]
Technical Writing - DSST (3)

Introduction to Computing - DSST (3)
Principles of Finance - DSST (3)
Principles of Management - CLEP (3)

B. Area of Study: General Management - 18 credits
Money & Banking - DSST (3)
Management Information Systems - DSST (3)
Organizational Theory - TECEP (3)

C. Business Electives - 9 credits

Business Law II - DSST (3)
Principles of Supervision - DSST (3)
Introduction to Business - DSST (3)

III. Free Electives - 6 credits
Fundamentals of Emergency Management FEMA (1)
Leadership and Influence FEMA (1)
Decision Making and Problem Solving FEMA (1)
Developing and Managing Volunteers FEMA (1)
Effective Communication FEMA (1)
Emergency Planning FEMA (1)

I have chosen Straighterline for Macroeconomics, Microeconomics, Accounting I and II because I am half scared of teaching myself those subjects; it seems like SL may be easier. If anyone has reasons why the CLEPs would be better and/or easier, please let me know.

I just want to make sure I start on the right path because, with the help of God, I AM DOING THIS. FINALLY! Any and all encouragement is welcome -- both now, and in the future. As someone in another thread said, PLEASE PUSH ME! Smile

Thank you in advance for all your help. You all are awesome people and I will be forever grateful.
