Dear Mermaid 701,
I was fortunate because when I first went to WGU to obtain my BSN, I only needed two non-Nursing classes that were required, Biochemistry and Statistics. The very first thing I would do if I were you, would be to discuss this with your student mentor, if you have been assigned one, if not then speak to the admission counselor.
I can tell you that if you are very motivated and you opt to take the course through WGU, it probably won't take you long. If English Comp is one of your strengths, you do not have to complete every single task in the course of study, you can take a pretest, and if your cutoff is high enough, then you can take the final test. There is sometimes a lot of repetited information within the course of study.
I don't have any idea how much it costs to do a CLEP test, but since you will be on a six-month term through WGU it isn't really going to cost you anything extra to take the course through them.
I would be more than happy to answer any other questions you have about WGU, so please feel free to reach out to me.
