There's benefits to waiting to register and detriments. The whole testing out of everything format of old, seems to be going to the wayside so if there are changes, it is usually to add more in house requirements, not to subtract. So, it may be good that you registered.
In my case, I just made the cut-off for the military degree program. they just changed our requirement from 18 to 24 credits, which could mean an extra 4 months at least.

Perhaps those more experienced will clarify, but I'm kind of wishing I had read more on this forum before I sent my $75 app to TESC, (plus a couple of fees for transcripts.) It seems to be more economical to take CLEP/DSST tests before applying, so you will be within 6 months of finishing by the time you apply.
In my case, it's been so long since I have taken courses (first yr. college was 1968) that I really don't remember exactly what courses I've taken, so it might be worth it for me to see my transcript evaluation so I can plan better. I guess the worst that can happen is I may have to reapply in 6 mos. (or enroll) if I'm not close to finishing.
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.
