Course Suggestions for ASBA - Mab81 - 09-06-2018

I only need 4 more courses for my ASBA. I would love to get input on the easiest/quickest providers for these credits. I am willing to pay a little more $$ for a course if it means I can get it done more easily or quickly. I work full time so my study time is limited. 

English 1 (I am taking this via Sophia)
English 2 (need suggestions for least painful course)
Marketing (need suggestions for fastest course)
Computer Concepts/Intro to computers (fastest course?)

Thank you everyone. I plan to take the cornerstone in Novermber and I wanted to try to knock most of these out before then.

TESU has confirmed to me that the residency waiver fee is good for 12 months so I can continue to try for my BALS on the same fee.

And yes, I do want both degrees. I am an accounting clerk and I believe having on my resume that I am 'pursuing' an associates in business has helped me land positions.

SDC English comp 2 might be the "least painful" since it only has 3 assignments.

onlinedegree has a marketing class, not sure if anyone has taken it to confirm if it's quick but it may be worth a try.

Also, if you are able, try clep/modern states for 1 or more of those.

Otherwise, I find SDC to be the quickest/easiest provider for most of their Courses.

There's also a DSST for Eng II (multiple guess, no essays):

Information Systems CLEP is good.
Marketing - Saylor is not worth it if you're going for fast. You can consider CLEP - I didn't take it, but I imagine it shouldn't be bad.

Sophia's Introduction to Information Technology will satisfy the Computer Concepts and Applications/Introduction to Computers/CIS requirement of the ASBA degree program.

I might be taking that with Study.com myself.

You correctly called it English Comp 2 so I am not being pedantic but the full name of the SDC course is English 105: College Composition II. SDC's English 102 comes in as American Literature I.
