what you wanna do man is check out if your degree has specific requirements like a capstone course or if the other areas of your degree are gonna be hard to find. Theres not a whole lot of ECE IT exams you can test out of so you might actually have to take a course.
so - if you know for sure that you wouldnt have to take any courses or maybe just one 3 credit capstone course and you could acquire the credits by cheaper/easier/ and/or faster means, then go with the multi source cuz even though its like 800$ upfront, its also gonna be 825$ per 3unit class so if you take 12 credits, its gonna be near 4grand. if you do the multisource, itd be only 800$upfront, maybe one cap 825$, and if you can keep the remaining tests or other means of acquiring credit below a grand, you could save at least 1500 bucks - prolly more.
