Business degree through testing?

Looking at that website is kind of funny. It's soooo old and outdated. The last copyright on it is from 2004. DANTES don't exist anymore. Not sure what ECE was....EXCEl exams maybe? Honestly this plan is soooo unrealistic! There is no way you could possibly study those subjects and pass 3 exams in a day. Not possible. You would already need to know topic really well. 

Yeah, ECE = Excelsior College Examinations. I don't know when the name change occurred. But I do remember stumbling on that site way back when and being enamored with the whole idea. Not with the actual speed but with the relative ease.

To some extent, I do think it would have been possible to pass multiple CLEP exams in one day. If you view CLEP exams as the final exam for your self-study courses, it's not unusual to have actual college course final exams be scheduled back-to-back. But I do agree that you wouldn't be able to keep up that momentum. Especially for the GRE study that would've been necessary to get the UL credits.

By the by, I do think it's a bit of a shame that schools no longer grant credits for passing a GRE subject exam. But we have many more degree options these days, so I guess the trade-off has been worth it.
