The best use of credit for this was deemed to be 2 ALEKS Courses and the College Math CLEP to get 12 credits for the 3 course slots. I'd heard that Beginning Alg is sometimes counted as a 'remedial' college course (lower then Freshman level) and in those cases, wasn't given as usable course credit for the degree by the school.
So to be safe, I just started with Int Alg, and finished up Trig after playing around in the Statistics courses.
Yeah I noticed after I wrote that you were going with Excelsior.

I think I'm going to give Trig a shot in the next few minutes. I may end up trying the Intro to Stats after as well just because it can't hurt.
