Hi Folks,
I don't know if this has come up before... (maybe even more than once).
I have taken two DSST tests and passed. I have five more CLEP tests that I'm planning on. They are:
Micro
Macro
Financial Accounting
Business Law
Intro to Marketing
My question is, all but one of these are offered through straighterline and would transfer to my school. I have to prep anyway which normally includes buying a book, and spending 25+ hours getting ready and then it's a one shot, hoping i'm prepared enough.
i'm reading that people are routinely finishing the S/L courses in a week or less. Some much less- I could be in S/L for two months and pay for four classes and still be at just under the cost of CLEP tests. (and avoid the hassle of going to a test site and risking not passing.
how realistic is finishing these classes in ~~20 hours of work each?
Anyone else have similar thoughts?
