I received my transfer of credits report from COSC and it looks like I only need a few classes, yay!

Any recommendations for tests ? Would like to knock this out ASAP. I am doing the ASBA degree with hopes of then doing BSBA. I am still waiting on TESC to do a transcript review.
Ethical Decision Making
Global Understanding
Literature & Fine Arts - only need 1 cr
Natural Science - 1 3 cr course
Non US History/Culture - only need 1 cr
*Forgot to add in the Cornerstone class.
Thanks!

You can cover the Global and non US History with a single exam, the DSST Human Cultural Geography.
Analyzing and Interpreting Literature (CLEP) is widely considered the easiest of all cleps, it will cover your lit and fine arts.
DSST has an ethics exam (Business Ethics in Society)
DSST Astronomy is often cited as an "easier" science
The above would result in 15 credits as the A&I Lit is worth 6 credits. Here is the Master List for COSC

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.

Thanks, I was just going over the list and noticing several exams would cover two classes. Definitely looking to take the easiest ones!
Thanks again!

Keep in mind that COSC does not offer an ASBA....only an AS in General Studies.
rebel100 made the exact same recommendations I was going to make, but he beat me too it!
Good luck!

Just received an email from COSC stating that POL 250 Ethics in International Relations would satisfy Ethical Decision Making, Global Understanding, and Non US History/Government. Does anyone know if there is a test for this or if this class is hard?

For Ethics and Global Understanding:
StraighterLine Business Ethics and Cultural Anthropology Courses are two of the easier courses they offer.
You can likely complete the courses faster than studying for two exams and both have ebooks available for download.
The finals for both are open book.
If you read the books, you should be able to complete each class in a few days with an A, so to help your COSC GPA.

If your out of state this is gonna run $900 or so, you can accomplish it a lot cheaper and maybe quicker via EXAM or even straighterline as PendragonG pointed out.
