We don't have many Strayer students, if any. Strayer publishes equivalencies on its website.

This is Strayer's page on Straighterline.

Strayer also has its own challenge exams.

Thanks for the follow up. I noticed the same thing about there not being many Strayer students here. The reason why I chose to attend there is because the company I'm employed with will cover tuition. So my goal is to make the most of my educational allowance to achieve all the credits as quickly as possible. Once I have exhausted my educational allowance with my company transfer to another school to finish out with minimum out of pocket expense. You're right about the equivalencies on its website, so I guess I need to clarify my question in that I can exempt the classes by using CLEP, DSST or through Strayer's Challenge exam. My question is does anyone know what would be the best option to quickly study (i.e. ALEK, InstantCert, SL, Sophia or????) and take the exam either through CLEP, DSST or through some other college self study program.
Once again thanks again for your input

I wouldn't use SL or Sophia to study for CLEP or DSST. Why pay when there are free or cheaper alternatives. Your best bet is to pick the exam and research the individual recommendations for that exam. For example, I am planning to take the Macro Econ clep. Based on research I am going to use IC Flash cards and either Macroeconomics Demystified or the AP study guide.
