Is it possible to test mostly out of these? (I'm certain fully testing out is impossible)
Specifically, I mean either the
BS in Business w/ MBA focus in Marketing or the
BS in Healthcare Management w/ MBA focus in Healthcare Management.
Also, will a high GMAT score cover some credits? I'm confident in my ability to ace it, but I really don't want to waste my time if it's just the equivalent to a shiny medal and not an example of my abilities that'll count as credits.
I hope my confidence doesn't come off rudely.

Hi,
I can tell you that the BS in Healthcare Management cannot be tested out of. You need to complete some core courses through EC. When I completed the degree two years ago you needed to take 7 courses, however they have exams for two, which is what I did. Since they have created the MBA bridge program I'm not sure how they might affect it. I know they have several business courses that can be completed through ECE's. Just keep in mind that their MBA program wasn't a fully accredited MBA so you may want to look into it if that is important to you. Good luck!

Gawd, I hope they won't give credit for the GMAT. The GMAT doesn't measure knowledge - it actually doesn't even predict first-year grades in graduate business courses.
The GMAT score, when added to other factors, improves the decision model most business schools use for admission decisions.
