Thomas Edison Prior Learning Assessment - speeddegree - 04-24-2006
Any thoughts from the group that have already attempted this program through Thomas Edison. I am contemplating what is a better move -- to start the PLA or focus strongly on studying and tetsing more CLEP/Dante. I have mixed bag of of 24 credits so far from Dante, and College.

Too much hassle from what I could tell and the studying and passing my cleps and dantes gave me more immediate satisfaction and payback then trying to make that program work.

I've read on the TESC discussion board that the PLA credits are almost as much work as a regular class unless it is totally obvious that you have an abundance of experience and prior learning. You may want to go to the TESC discussion board under "Current students" and as them or look at previous posts with the same question. I think PLA credits cost as much as regular credits also. Clep might be your best bet.
