Fastest platform for three courses

ASU is cheaper than Outlier and you get a real ASU transcript. A few students here have done Outlier, but it's hard to justify the increased price compared to ASU now.

Thanks Rachel, I will check out ASU. However, I am more focused on easier and faster part of the education due to the fact I am working full time and have a really tiring schedule. I feel like Outlier might be easier as quizzes and in class activities makes up some share in grades. ASU might be as difficult as CLEP I guess.

ASU is great for full-time people, actually. For the vast majority of classes, it only takes about 1-2 hours of work per week to complete the class with a good grade. There are quizzes each week that count for part of the grade. Calculus is something different - some people love the Gradarius platform that ASU uses for Calc, some hate it. But, even if you hate Gradarius, it's still pretty quick and easy. Maybe 2-3 hours per week. I'm pretty sure that the Outlier classes require more work per week in order to get a good grade, possibly even a proctored midterm?

I am definitely going with ASU for Calculus and Microeconomics. Any recommendation for Statistics? Outlier and Westcott seem to be the good ones with the price/performance.

I don't have any good suggestions for statistics beyond Outlier and Westcott. However, since Outlier (mostly) adheres to a standard class format anyway, you might want to consider a CC like New Mexico Junior College or Luna. I haven't checked if either have Stats, but they probably do. And either of those should be about half the price (maybe less?) of Outlier/Westcott. Just look for an asynch online stats class from a community college somewhere and you'll be golden.
