Help on which test to take next
#1
So just passed my Microeconomics test yesterday with a 56! Glad that one's done with. But now I have no clue which class I want to take next. These are my choices:

SL Business Communications
SL Introduction to Statistics
SL Organizational Behavior
CLEP Financial Accounting
SL Managerial Accounting
CLEP Business Law
DSST Fundamentals of Cybersecurity

These are the rest of the tests that will (hopefully) transfer into my degree. Does anyone have any insight as to which tests may be easier/harder, if certain classes should be taken together, etc? These are classes that I have no previous knowledge on, (except maybe Statistics) so everything will be new information. Thanks in advance!

I did Study.com's Business Communications; I can't speak to SL's version, but I thought SC's version was decently easy...by the time I got to the essays I had racked up enough points on the quizzes/exams that I threw together the three essays in the course of about an hour and was done...didn't score too great on some of them, BUT my overall grade was still well over 80 so it was all good.

I can't speak for you but for me accounting (both financial and managerial) was a real bear; I can't imagine taking a CLEP with no prior knowledge. But I didn't use SL or SC for either of them (took them through a university) so can't say if those would be any better.

Law was easy; pretty intuitive to logic, I thought. Took it through SL. Haven't taken OB yet.

Business Communications is probably easiest in general.

SL courses tend to be easier since you can get around 55-60% on the final and the rest is unproctored.

Well based off of your replies, I'm thinking Business Communications; I'll have to look into it further. Thanks for your input!

I have taken Business Communications, Organizational Behavior and Business Law all through Straighterline. They weren't difficult and the reading was interesting (to me). You have to write two papers for Business Communications, but they're not difficult at all, I think it took me approx an hour to write each paper.
