I'm almost there!
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1...sp=sharing
Can y'all take a look and make recommendations on fastest/easiest offerings to fill these last 6 courses? I can taste the finish line!
I know SL Managerial Accounting is usually recommended to fill the ACC requirement in the AOS, I plan on taking Accounting II at Straighterline and then rolling right in to the UL one. What about the other 4 courses, am I missing an 'easier' option? (I clep/test well)
Business Law
Business in Society/International Management
Business Communications
UL Management course to fill UL AOS requirement
Looking for advice on these 4 slots

Do you already have all of these in your eval? Because you have some as UL, which they aren't any longer.
Principles of Finance (Study.com) - LL, but doesn't matter
BUS 107: Organizational Behavior - LL, BUS 307: Leadership and Organizational Behavior is the UL one
BUS 106: Human Resource Management - LL, BUS 306: Strategic Human Resources Management is the UL one - but I would switch to either MARK 303: Global Marketing or MARK 308: Applied Marketing as they are shorter and only have 1 assignment (and since you'll have done Int'l Business, Global Marketing will be even shorter due to overlap)
Switch to these, you don't need UL
BUS 120: International Business
BUS 113: Business Communication
Also, Public Relations is MAR, not MAN
For Business Law, if a CLEP center isn't open near you, you can do Saylor, SL, or Study.com.

Have you looked at Davar? At least according to their website, they have some TESU Business equivalencies, and they're cheap (2 courses for $99).

Oh snap!
So to verify I could finish at DAVAR basically?
ACCT-302 Accounting for Management - TESU ACCT 102
LAW-201 Business Law
MAN-390 Managerial Communications - Does this fit the Business Comms core?
MAR-330 Principles of Sales - sounds like an easy UL for me
and then
FIN-310 Multinational Business Finance OR FIN-401 Corporate Finance
to finish out the AOS and the UL I need.
Does this look right? Any idea on the difficulty of these FIN courses? I had already started Managerial Accounting at SL and I'm 13% through but I've not worked on it for a year and I remember hating it. I would much rather wham, bam on a single test. I've not taken anything from Davar.

Yes, they're all in my eval already, at least the ones that you've mentioned. I am waiting for the Sophia courses to be added, they just received my transcript.

That's exactly how Davar works. All self-paced study, they only provide a study guide, suggested textbooks, (sometimes a pdf textbook as well, depending on the course) and for a handful of courses, a YouTube read-through of a PPT. You study and take the test when you're ready.
Most of the Davar exams I took were 60 multiple choice (one point each) and 10 essay (four points each), although it would probably be more accurate to call them "short answer", very roughly three sentences each should cover most of them.
