For someone with no previous knowledge on either subject, which exam do you think would be easier? Principles of Management, or Principles of Supervision? I know everyone is different, but if you have taken either, or both, and could give me some input, Id appreciate it.
I just passed Intro to Sociology, and need a management class.

Supervision is regarded as easier (noting that many schools give credit for a lower course for Supervision than Management). Make sure your school will accept it before you spend time taking it.
My completed "non-traditional" credits include 27 credits from CLEP, 30 credits from DSST, 6 credits from ALEKS, 19 credits from FEMA courses including PDS, 3 credits from NFA courses, 10 credits from ACE Workplace Training, 3 credits from a TESC TECEP exam, and 3 credits from a TESC PLA course.

Thanks for a quick reply. I'm working towards my CCAF currently, I'm active duty Air Force. I actually have to take both exams, but wanted to take the "easier" exam first, also hoping it may help when taking the second.

Sounding like a broken record here, but try Free Clep Prep.com. Justin does a good job of showing degree of difficulty, and "overlap." In other words, the order in which you might want to take exams based upon what you had to learn for previous exams. Good luck.

Take Supervision then Management. Supervision isn't as broad as Management, though they're both very easy.

I would take Supervision first. I found them both similar, but Supervision was easier for me.
