Planning is a sort of a hobby. I do as much as I can on the BSBA and other decided plans, and then I can't help but wonder during some of my downtime What I end up pursuing will be potentially a big part of my life for a while, such as maybe having to change some other life plans so I can do a Masters quickly, or choosing to live nearer to a certain area for the school or job opportunities. I will have to pin down where I'm going to live.

Also, I'm in the home stretch for TESU I have 15-16 exams planned for the next 19 weeks, and 8 of them will be fairly easy. 4 of them are SL and Study.com where the final has such little pressure. 15-16 because I don't know if I have to do that additional Marketing TECEP. I also plan to do an extra exam not needed for my degree.
I did 3 exams this week, and I will probably get 2 exams done in the next 5 days. I would enjoy crossing off the SL or Study.com from my list, but I'm waiting for financial reasons.
In 2 months I'll be enrolling for Spring community college classes. I already know most of the classes I'm going to take, but I'm thinking about how to use my last credits that are covered by the grant. I may use them for A&P I and II because I'm still thinking of doing a nursing program. I don't want to waste the credits. I want them to go toward a future plan.

I felt like not doing the CLEP this week, but I went ahead and paid. I already had a study plan. But after I paid and wasted more time, I realized I wasn't leaving myself much time.
I'm finding Contract Law to be not intuitive, and I thought it would be. I'm pretty sure I will pass if I stopped studying, but I want to finish my study plan.
I'm thinking of postponing my TESU graduation to spend more time on other things. I don't feel like the degree will make much difference in terms of finances right away, but I could do other things that will make a difference. For now I'm still fitting in exams and courses when I can, but I'm not sure I can pay for Study.com or SL in October!

I don't like 16 week classes. 8 to 10 seems better, but still long.
I want to start the BA-CS but will have to wait a while.
The money part is hurting my motivation again. And these long writing-based online CC classes. If it weren't for the money I could have the BSBA already.

I would rather put out my own eye with a spoon than deal with a semester-system. It's pure torture!

Not much to update.
I haven't been able to travel to a CLEP test center again. It's frustrating. I am hopeful that one center will let me take 2 exams in a row, and I could go more than once.
I'm finally taking the two marketing TECEPs this week. I'm still waiting to find out if I must take the Advertising TECEP too... due to Digital Marketing coming in as LL. Probably. This was a waste of $117.
I think I'm going to push to complete everything, so that I can graduate in March if I can pay the residency waiver and grad fee. It's not very likely.
I hope I don't have to take grad school courses in 15 or 16 week format. Even 12 week.

I'd definitely challenge their placement of Digital Marketing as LL, since Study.com states that it comes in as "MAR-441 : Marketing with Digital and Social Media" and the only equivalent course at TESU is MAR-441.

I'm not sure. I am waiting for an evaluation. I read about it in another thread. Something about Study.com trying to get it changed in January? I don't think anyone is sure.

IIRC, Study.com currently has courses that are UL and TESU is switching them to LL on 1/1/18. Per their agreement, if you have transferred the course in prior to that date, you get to keep it as UL.
