Analyzing & Interpreting Literature plus anything else that interests you. I always think that studying what you are interested in makes life so much easier.

There are a couple of 6 credit Literature CLEP's, But A&I Lit is deemed easier by most. I recall the University of Arkansas Independent Study had a couple of 1 credit courses, but I don't remember if they are in the Humanities, BYU used to list a couple of 2 credit courses also. Is the Technical Writing DSST a Humanities? It was a very straightforward exam.

I'm always happy to complete the free application waiver for those applying to WGU (I get a free gift from WGU for this).  Just PM me your first/last name and a valid email so I can complete their form.

Do you know a foreign language? You can get up to 12 credits or 6 credits depending on your knowledge.

Also I see in your signature you took the two ALEKS and passed, how hard were they? Did they take you long to finish? I did Int Alg and now working on College Alg. Hoping to finish soon so I can move on to stats and calc.

Also how were your two SL courses?

Chiquita =Well Straighterline classes I really like. The answers are right from the book.I love the no pressure work on it as you wish. I really don't like math but I was pleased with the Aleks courses. They made it the best/easiest statistics and pre calc could be. I can't brag about getting through them in a couple days or hours like other people but again math is hard for me. I just kept chipping away at it.
Alba and Rebel = Is A&I Lit a clep test? is it 3 credits?
Unfortunately I do not know a foreign language. Those 1 credit courses might just help me! thanks for the heads up

Yup. I'd definitely do that one and DSST Technical Writing, if your school takes DSSTs.

Your best bet is to always just get doing them while deciding what to do. After you decide what to do you will already have some, most or all of the credits in the bag.
