Principle of Finance: DSST or PF course?
#1
Hello IC!!!!

Here is my question:

I need to meet the requirment for Princ. of Finance, I am not that great with math even though I have taken several maths classes, but I am lazy with numbers. So, I was wondering if anybody has taken the Penn Foster course?

Or should I go for the DSST test? In one side, I don't want to risk not passing or getting a C, on the other hand, what if the PF course is a lot of work?

Any comments? Please help!! I have to start working on this requirement soon so I graduate as soon as possible.

BMills,

I noticed that you have passed both "Principles of Finance + Principles of Financial Accounting". I have to take both of these tests, so I was wondering if any of the information overlapped. Would you suggest I take one before the other? Any information would be appreciated..Thanks

Kerry
