Business Policy Course for EC advice - jec959 - 11-28-2007
I am trying to decide my best course of action for Business Policy & Strategy for EC. I am going to try to have the DSST statistics test out of the way by the end of the year.
CSU Pueblo - business strategy course mgmt 485 - $417 - has anyone taken this and gotten it finished in a timely manner?
EC Business Course - $870 - Has anyone taken this if so what is it like
University Of Nebraska-Lincoln - mgmt 475 - web course for $513 - has anyone taken it if so how is the course?
TECEP Exam - which scares me by the way, as it is expensive all or nothing shot at the requirement.
This leaves me with
Business statistics - DSST - Penn Foster if I tank the test
Financial Acct - Clep Exam
Managerial Acct - Penn foster
American Litature - last 6 arts & science credit
then done if I pass the Penn Foster Retest on College Algebra anyway otherwise another course or clep.

I would take the TECEP on this one, hands down. There are a couple more people taking it in the next couple of weeks, so they can add their two cents....
But from my perspective , your homework for a regular class would most likely consist of writing a 3-5 page essay about the given case study for each chapter. That amounts to 13 essay papers....before your final. On top of that, many schools want you to prepare your own case study example as part of your project.
Compare that with the extremely generic and uncomplicated (3) 15 point essay questions that are on the TECEP test.
In my opinion, the TECEP Business Policy exam was far more like a DANTES exam than an ECE exam.
