Starting back up

[bjcheung77]

If you want a snapshot of a degree plan, read this post and the link from Jan 2021, all the required course recommendations are there, take the exact courses as per the post - least amount of written assignments/essays. In other words, it's cheapest/easiest/fastest to select these courses over Study.com or another provider. Link: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...#pid336902

You should do a mix of both Sophia.org and Davar, skipping Study.com unless you need a course that is not offered at Davar or Sophia.org, from looking at the excel spreadsheet above, you can complete the remaining courses using these recommended providers. It's up to you though which provider to select from, here's a breakdown of what is required.

Davar for Upper Level: They use Powerpoint presentations or slides, you just go through the entire package of materials they give you and test on that, there are no textbooks you need, even though some courses they recommend you go through a textbook, everything is on 1 test - just pass this test with a 70% or higher and you're done, some have short answer questions also, just 3-4 sentences in addition to the multiple choice and the exam is completed. For business courses, it's $99 for 2, and $15/each exam proctor with RPnow, So select RPNow as proctor!

Sophia.org for Lower Level: They use biometric technology for proctoring, no webcam use. Everything is open book, it's pretty similar to SL/Study.com, you need 70% to pass, each course basically is quizzes, exams, and assignments (if the course has assignments). I highly recommend them now for Lower Level, bypassing StraighterLine altogether. Sophia is $79/month, unlimited courses; however, you can only take 2 courses at a time, if you finish quickly, keep adding courses!

---

This is what I would recommend to finish off your degree, as per the template I created, mainly for individuals who do not like assignments/writing.
Basically, you want to email academic advising asking if these courses would work for your plan just to make sure before proceeding on this route.
