Need Advice on CLEP's
How's it going everyone. I've lurked here for a few weeks while I've been preparing to apply to TESC and now I have a few questions. Here is what I am going to need to finish my AAS from TESC:
A. English Composition 6 (I have an English from LSU so I either CLEP the whole 6 hours or find a school to take the other English from) B. Humanities 3 (Art Appreciation Penn Foster or a CLEP suggestion from you guys) C. Social Sciences 3 (Psychology Penn Foster or a CLEP suggestion from you guys) D. College Mathematics 3 (LSU College Algebra DONE!) E. General Education Electives 6 (Biology from LSU and a CLEP suggestion from you guys) II. Area of Study 21 (Done!) III.Free Electives 18 (Done!) As you can tell it looks like I'm around 4 courses shy of my AAS. I'm trying to get this done quickly so I can move on to Bellevue for my Bachelors. My debate is whether to CLEP them or take a few from Penn Foster. I'm open for suggestions and if I decide to CLEP I'm going to sign up for InstaCert. I appreciate any input! Thanks!

Thanks Shoto! In your opinion which ones would be the easier of the two? I'm trying to be patient but I'm so close that I want to finish this and move on to my bachelor's. :lol: Thanks!

For the English part, take the English comp with Essay (if no essay is required, take it without but check with your school first). For humanities, I would either take the A&I Lit or Humanities CLEP for 6 credits. If your school takes DSST exams, go for World Religions. Pretty cake. Social Sciences=Intro to Sociology. One of the easiest CLEPs out there. For General Electives, I would either take a history CLEP or whatever you are inclined to do. Good Luck!

I'm finished! OR Retake the English CLEP

Hmmmmm, good question. The easiest of the two groups would be the the first one - management/supervision series.

Thanks for the advice guys! I think I'm going to take the Sociology CLEP for sure and the English CLEP as well. I'm going to take Art Appreciation through Penn Foster. That lkeaves me with 1 more General Ed elective. In your opinions what would be the easiest or fastest one that would fall into a general ed elective spot? I've been in investigations for 13 years so I'm not sure if that helps. Thanks again!
