Okay, I have a plan, and I am starting now! I signed up for Aleks, Instacert, and saylor, and checked out some Clep study guides from School. I plan to Study 2 subjects and work through math for an hour per subject each day. I am hoping to be able to take 2-3 test every 2 weeks.No pressure, just a goal to strive for.:p
Thanks to all the informative posts and helpful responses, I feel like I am on the right track.
I plan to submit my transcripts to tesc in January when I complete the classes I am curently taking at a B&M.
It is so funny to me that I never thought that I could have a career that I would really enjoy and would pay a lot of money too. I thought I could get my RN, but I never thought I could move into an administrators position.Now I feel like it is so doable. I just can't believe that I never had a vision of sucess for myself. I am excited.

Congrats!
Little tip - bookmark this thread so you can find it easily a couple months down the road. At some point, you'll hit a motivational barrier - maybe general life will get wacky, maybe your eye will leave the prize for some reason, or the classes will start to feel overwhelming - but a reminder of that initial fire you have burning right now will do a lot to remind you of why you're starting, where it will take you, and how simple it ultimately is. It IS easy - just as easy as it feels right now - and you'll definitely breathe that sigh of relief and victory when it's done. Sometimes, motivation can be fickle, though, so save this! It is worth it and you've taken thirty steps in the right direction today!

Hi! Mrs. B has a great suggestion. When you come accross a thread that you think is helpful, bookmark it, too. You'll think you can find it again doing a search, but I frequently can't
Goo luck. Having a goal is the main thing. Keep it in mind, and you'll reach it.
