test decisions - input appreciated

[IrishJohn]

First, I am trying to decide between taking the Principles of Management CLEP or the Intro to Computing (CLEP or DSST). From your experience, which one is easier?

That depends upon your experience. Have you worked in business and/or management? That helps with the CLEP. If you're starting out from scratch and have some experience with computers then probably Intro to Computing. You'll still need to study for it.

Second, how difficult is the Principles of Supervision DSST?

Very similar to CLEP Management. If you are ready to take one you should do fine with the other. Check out free-clep-prep.com for study resources.

Third, what order do you recommend taking the Business tests in? I need to take Intro to Business DSST, Effective Supervision DSST, Principles of Marketing CLEP, and either Principles of Management or the Intro to Computing. I also need to take Intro to Sociology, and Macro and Micro economics. Any suggestions about the order?

Difficult to say because I usually recommend that you go with whatever subject is strongest for you fist. Although I've completed all of these myself, if it were me in your situation I do something like this:

1. Intro to Computing
2. Sociology
3. Marketing
4. Intro to Business
5. Management
6. Supervision
7. Macroeconomics
8. Microeconomics

Some of these you can take through Straighterline if you don't feel comfortable doing the exam.
