Yeah that would be great, but I'm really looking forward to Intermediate Accounting II because the only other option is Penn Foster and that's over $300 and loses its ACE recommendation in June. If you need to take Cost soon SL wasn't that bad. I finished the course in a few days.

Yeah the price of Penn Foster for what you are getting isn't worth it to me. That's why I decided to just suck it up and take Intermediate Accounting II at a CC (Oakton CC). I am glad I did. I feel like I learned way more in this class so far then all of my ACE Accounting courses combined. However, Study.com's Intermediate Accounting II would be a very good option for people looking to complete the degree with all ACE stuff. Penn Foster Price and your not getting Regionally Accredited Credits is just something I didn't want to do so I didn't.
Also the Penn Foster Intermediate Accounting Courses don't lose ACE Credit until 6/30/2018 not 2017 so you have plenty of time if you want to go this route.

Would this mean it is "prep" and not up to full college credit since it is below 100? That would be my guess. More like Beginning or Intermediate with ALEKS.
