You can also replace two of your tests in General Education Electives with two more ALEKS classes - Intermediate Algebra and College Algebra.

Thanks! I think I'll stick with the other ones though, because I can't stand math. Dreading the few math classes I have. I really wish I could get out of Money and Banking.

Even if you are bad in math the Intermediate Algebra and College Algebra would be alot easier and cheaper with Aleks then testing out of your GE electives. Especially since you have Statistics and Pre calc already with aleks. just my two cents.

To add to what chiquitacobbe has said, Intermediate Algebra and College Algebra are lower that the Precalculus that you are already planning to take with ALEKS. You will actually be covering both of these in your Precalculus study with them, so you may as well pick up the credits along the way.

Thanks for the input! I've actually already tested out of the General Education requirements. Actually the majority of these tests I've already taken. I only have a handful left.

Maybe you should update your list to show which areas are already fulfilled so we can better guide you.

Sure. All the asterisk marked courses completed. Really I was posting this to make sure the layout of the credits was correct. The only two classes I would really love to find substitutes for would be Business Law II and Money and Banking. But considering the other courses already being used in the degree plan, I think they are my only options.
