I'm Back... - P00057870 - 10-20-2010

After about a 5-month hiatus due to family issues, it is time to get busy and finish my BS. I need to get back in touch with you all for motivation and the uplifting posts that help to keep me on track! Only 22 credits to go; 21 UL and 1 LL. Have DSST in Business Ethics scheduled for this Friday.

Just have to get kick started again!

Any suggestions on a cheap and fast LL credit. Working with Excelsior. Of course, I can just take one more with CLEP or DSST but not sure what great hints I have missed in recent months.

Welcome back, I guess it has been a while since I last saw a post from you. Good luck on your upcoming exams. With 22 credits left, you should be done in no time at all.

Welcome back. That new Business Ethics is supposed to be pretty gratifying, let us know how you do. Reminder Info Literacy is 1 LL credit, did you count that?

I don't remember if you're working, but I got my employer to send me to a seminar offered by the local university's extended studies area. It had a little-used credit option (the office staff had to find out how to do it). I got two quarter credits for 3 Saturdays of useful high-value learning. Came in handy when transferred in, especially as I had other fractional credit from quarter-system schools.

i thought Business Ethics DSST was pretty easy - so relax man. Just study up the cards and the study material on the forums - you know how to do it! Just do it!

Hi Judy, welcome back!

This probably isn’t new to you, but I’ll ask anyway for you and other readers.

Do you already have the 3 free LL credits from NFA? (It is 3 courses for 1 credit each – applied professional. It is a nice option when you need to even out your credits, like I did.) They would go on an ACE transcript - $40 for first transcript and $15 for next transcripts. It works well price-wise, if you have other ACE credit, like ALEKS, to transfer. Have you already taken ALEKS Stats for 3 UL credits?

I had been wondering recently how things were progressing with your degree. I’m glad to see you are back and ready to get finished!

Yes - I still need 1 more LL. Thanks for the try though - it was necessary for the AS that I completed in January.

I don't know anything about these but will certainly check at the local universities for some options. There are a few certificates I was interested in. I'll have to see if they can be converted to credits.

Are you talking about the FEMA courses? If so, then all I need to make sure of is whether EC is accepting them or not. They look interesting to me anyway.

Thanks for the input NAP

A heartfelt thanks to all. I sometimes wonder how much this forum and its members realize what a great job - not just in information but support for all of us.
