My AA plan, analysis please - humbleAMG - 10-03-2015
Well, after weighing the pros and cons of both CharterOak and TESC I have decided to pursue TESC for my AA. I have no prior credits. I based the following on Sanatone's General Education Plan-after July 2015.
As DSST is having a sale for this month I would like to focus on them out of the gate. 60 total credits. Is the plan below an accurate path for achieving my AA goal as painless as possible? Of course I would like to pursue a BA afterwards.
Thank you,
TECP

You looking for cheapest route? looks pretty painless to me
ALEKS college Algerbra, rather than the DSST
TECEP technical wrting if you want to get your Bachelor's even though its like 40$ more. Easy residence credits
TECEP MAT-105 for same reason
Oh, and Straighterlines are cheaper than DSSTs and you don't need to go to an actual proctor. but that is up to you.

Thank you for the reply and mention of Straighterline, I did not consider them, for really no reason and did a bit of research on them. My path, while fiscally mindful, is a balance between my hectic schedule and overall cost. Perhaps Straighterline is a solution for a few courses. I leaned towards the CLEP and DSST path as studyguides and flashcards were readily available......
