I could, but I'm not going to bother at this point. I'm coming in with over half the degree done, and the 9 CU/mo. I need to finish in one term should be easy.

Talked to my program mentor this afternoon. Kind of reminded me of a granny that hits the Jack Daniels every now and then (really cool lady). Told her I was already hitting the courses and had knocked out some pre assessments. She told me to keep at it, so I just knocked out the Network+ PreA with a 91. Total of 6 now.

Emailed my mentor and asked her what was required to have her unlock OAs on day 1. She said 90% or better on the pre assessments. I now have 6 pre assessments at 90%+ (with 2 more in the works) and the course instructors for the natural science lab have approved my topic. Technically I haven't even started yet :-P, but at this rate I can have around 30 credits done in the first 2 weeks.
