Online school sucks

At my work, not having the paper is going to get you passed over by HR. So I know that feeling.

I think you should bag a degree with the least amount of effort possible that will help you at work, which is not necessarily the least amount of money or the most amount of learning. I don't know the BA Communications at TESU, but I don't think it's the path of least resistance unless your work explicitly wants a communications degree. I like the TESU business admin degree because the requirements are easy to meet and it also happens to help at work more for most. TESU Lib Arts degree is another option.

First, take every CLEP, DSST, and TECEP that meets degree reqs that can be passed with quick study or no study like CLEP A&I Lit (worth 6 at TESU too). Use the paid IC forum, which I think is more helpful than the IC flashcards.

Then start using SL with certain exceptions like econ and stats. Make sure you get feedback about each SL course before you purchase it. Use the ctrl-F method and the Internet to power through the course in one day. You won't learn much, but you'll have your 3 credits in a day without leaving home. You need not worry about the proctored final if your non-proctored scores are high enough. ALEKS could be worth up to 12 credits. ALEKS might be gone in a few days, but I would try to get at least intermediate algebra, college algebra, and precalc done with what I call the wolf method before Nov 30. Stats via ALEKS is tough and I would avoid unless you find math easy.

For stats, I would use ratemyprofessor and take the easiest instructor at the community college. Crash the class on day 1 if there are no seats.

I think this is as "no school" as you'll get and still get your paper you need for work to avoid being passed over.

PM if you don't understand the vague parts of my post. It was deliberately vague.
TESU BA CS and Math (graduated December 2016)
