If I pass a few more CLEP's as planned next month, I will only be 3 classes short of my BA in Management. One of those classes is Critical Thinking. I can't find any sort of CLEP/DSST for that one, and i would rather not take it at my school since it is only offered in a 16 week online version. Does anyone have any recommendations for a self paced online school that might have a class like this? or a test out i am missing? Obviously I will need to check to make sure my school will take it, but they have been pretty good about that so far.
Thanks,
Dave

This
might be acceptable to your school. If you wanted to pursue this I'd recommend getting confirmation from your school directly, and searching for threads discussing Propero here on DF:
Propero, a new non-collegiate online course provider from the publisher Pearson, has a course in Critical Thinking with an ACE CREDIT recommendation for "3 semester hours in Critical Thinking or Introduction to Argumentation/Persuasion," at the lower level (freshman or sophomore, 100- or 200-level). You can see its description at the link under Courses: Arts and Humanities: Critical Thinking. The course is $299, which "includes course access, course materials, tutoring, and academic support."

How about this:
Propero Critical Thinking
It's ACE-approved. Just make sure that your school will accept it before signing up.

My school advisor looked into it and they decided that the Propero Critical Thinking was good and will accept courses from there. Only thing that sucked was that the Military Education office said it was not in their system of places they can pay for, but it's only $299, so no big deal. Just wanted to say thanks again and let you know that your suggestions worked out.
And the 15% off code, Spring13 that was mentioned in the other thread about Propero worked too, took $45 off the price.
