Degree completely by exams?
#5
In the US, if you want to earn a bachelor's degree, it typically takes 120 semester hours. Typically, a non-science course is a three-credit course. (Science courses, usually with labs, would be worth more credit hours.) There are books in the US - maybe you can get them at a library near you, or through Amazon - with the different majors offered by the different colleges and universities. Then, if you want to test out as much as you can, you'd need to see each college's or university's policy regarding CLEPs, DSSTs, or other exams. (If you search this forum, you'll see that TESC has exams, Ohio ?State? has exams, etc. Again, you'll need to see if the university that you want to attend accepts those tests, and which courses you can test out of.)

At a guess, I'd say that you'd only be able to test out of your General Education exams, if that. Good luck.
