Yep, just that simple, lol
At first, I didn't really care about the idea of a gpa since I've tested out of most of my degree anyway. Now however, I'm rolling around the thought in my mind. I know no one will be "fooled" if they bother to look at the transcript, but I'm thinking about having a good, just to say I have one.
Humor me please, what the easiest/quickest TESU course to take for a gpa?
Thanks!

There are a handful to choose from. You’re going for a BSBA right? How many credits are you needing for graduation? If it was for the BALS and you need the extra credits for free electives, I would choose any of the following. This is going from what I think should be easiest to hardest.
1. PLA 100 - Prior Learning Assessment
2. APS 100 - Medical Terminology
3. ENG 298 - Jane Austen...
4. CHE 128 or PHY 128 - CHEM I or PHY I Lab
5. CHE 129 or PHY 129 - Chem II or PHY II lab, only if you are missing a lab
If you really want that gpa, my pick would be a coin toss between 1 and 2.
Update. Check if you need general Ed’s, free electives or specific areas, PLA course should be Gen ed or free electives.
Medical Terminology is only for free electives

I think you can take the Cornerstone for GPA. Some people said it took them about an hour.
