Need advice in putting together degree plan for my wife (and me)

Definitely focus on the general eds until you do decide, no matter what degree you end up with they all have the basic requirements.

I don't see a CLEP available currently called Intro to Geography (even on the official CLEP College Board site https://clep.collegeboard.org/exams), it would appear that is (now) Social Sciences and History based on its description.  Others may have more information in regards to that.

I did look at it, but even though I read it had a good projected growth rate I also read it has a high unemployment rate...around 15% or so. While my wife will have opportunities awaiting her after she gets her cybersecurity degree, all I have for experience is in retail and warehouse work with some experience using Excel, Word, etc. I would be just another guy with a degree and no experience trying to get one of those jobs.

As for the intro to geography, I noticed my spreadsheet does say any SocSci course, so I'm hoping that I'm on the right track with Social Sciences and History.
