    I am moving quickly here trying to get everything in before Oct deadline.

    I have completed:

    Straighterline- Sociology, A&P 1 & 2
    Penn Foster- English Comp 100 and Information Lit 103
    Clep- 6 hours for humanities
    Aleks- College Alg. and Stats

    I need another elective and I need to figure out what is the best way to get the Life Span Dev. Psy done. Do you have any suggestions?

    You could CLEP the Human Growth & Development... I did. I bought the REA CLEP guide (which I am selling on Ebay), I have Santrock Life Span Development, and I also have a HG&D CLEP guide that was sent to me. I'll send you the pdf file if you pm me with your email address. I studied for about 2 weeks, and took the test. They sent the results almost immediately to Excelsior. I'm also trying to get as much done as I can before Oct 1, and plan to enroll before that date.

    Thanks Barbara, I am going to send you my email address. I still need to come up with one other class that will count toward the degree so I will have everything over with except for the micro.

    if you plan on going for your bsn, then try to take something that would apply to that degree as well. most bsn's require something like nutrition or statistics. both classes suck majorly but they are required courses. you dont need them for the asn. but if you do want your bsn my advice is to take a relevant course. good luck to you.

    The world religions DSST was quick and relatively easy and the Life span development was not too bad either. Both cheaper than EC.:spin:

    I'm hoping to take neurophysiology and genetics as my electives... I think they would be really interesting.

    If you are wanting something easy, try an online psych class.

    Good luck!!

    I am taking a great class from Straighterline... Medical Terminology. Worth 3 credits. I started it Tuesday morning, and will finish today or tomorrow. Total time spent... 4 to 5 hours. Highly recommended!
