Any advice?
#6
As TMW2010 stated, we can't give much advice w/o knowing degree and college. I am going to tell you what I would do in your situation (actually very similiar to what I am doing). I would get a degree from Thomas Edison State College so that you can test out of all but one class (TESC only gives a gpa for courses you take from them, so I am just taking one class for the gpa). And I would get it in a "clep-able" degree such as psychology, business, or general studies. I am getting my degree in psychology just so I can test out of most of it and then I am going to get my master's degree to do what I really want to do-teach. I am still going to be done much quicker than if I just got my bacheloer's degree to teach. So you could just get a general degree and then when you figure out what you really want to do, get a masters.

If you would rather go through Liberty, make sure you look at these pages for each of your testing options: CLEP, DSST, and ECE.
Here is LU's degree plan for an AA in general studies and how you could plug tests in:

BTW: LU states 15 credits must be completed through them.
ENGL 101 Composition & Rhetoric 3 - You could do College comp. or college comp modular for 101. Liberty only gives 3 credits for this instead of 6.
ENGL 102 Composition & Literature 3 - Class
Communications Elective 3 - I'm not sure what would fit here. Maybe Public Speaking DSST
MATH Math Elective (MATH 115 or higher) 3 - College Math CLEP. Again LU only offfers 3 credits instead of 6
PHIL 104 Contemporary Worldviews 3 - Class
Natural Science Elective 3 - Natural Science CLEP. LU actuall does give 6 credits for this one, so I gues the other 3 would fall in general ed. electives
History Elective 3 - You have many test options here.
Social Science Elective 3 - Into to Sociology CLEP
Humanities Elective 3 - Humanities CLEP. LU offers 3 credits instead of 6
PHIL 201 Philosophy & Contemporary Ideas 3 - Class
BIBL 104 Survey of Biblical Literature 3 - Class
THEO 104 Introduction to Christian Thought 3 - Class
And that leaves you with 21 General Ed. Electives You can look at the links above to see what you want to put here.

I personally think you would be better off going through TESC unles you really want to go through a Christian school or something like that. As you probably noticed, Liberty only gives 3 credits for quite a few tests most you could get 6 for elsewhere. At TESC, you can use FEMAs (search if you don't know what they are) for almost all your free electives which is a huge plus. If you want me to I could show you how you could plug all the tests into TESC's degree plan.
