Traveller needs advice - Traveller - 05-19-2008

I’m a newbie.
To complete my degree, I need to complete 6 exams. They all have to be upper level DSST.
I presently live and teach in a remote Canadian arctic community, and I will not be leaving here until the end of June. Because I will be leaving Canada in August for a year I want to complete my exams in the second week of July. I have to travel and stay overnight to do these exams. I also have other traveling to do for the remainder of July.
I have to fill a science requirement and chose Environment and Humanity Race to Save the Planet; I just have to do revisions on this now. Principles of Finance will be relatively easy because of my financial background.
I’ve explored Sparks Charts for these two and I think they would be a good resource to buy. I like that I can read them anytime.
Are there any more charts out there like the Sparks Charts?

Probably Human Resources Management- I have notes from Get College Credits. However I think that notes on Sparks Charts is more inline with the Instant Cert flash cards.
I need to come up with three more classes.

Money and Banking? I’ve worked in the Canadian banking system which is different to the U.S. I went through the flash cards and I won’t do this one.

I want to do the three others that are a bit integrated or relatively easy.

Advice and suggestions please.

Thanks,
Travie

You should be able to handle Management Information Systems, given your background. Even if you're not the most "techie" person out there, the IC flashcards and the Peterson exams should get you there.

I have taken Intro to world religions and History of the Vietnam war. IC has world religions, but not Vietnam. I used spark chart and IC for wold religions and my College TESC gave me credit for a REL-405 an upper level class.
I used Sparknotes and an audible recording for Vietnam and TESC gave me credit for HIS-351 another upper level credit.

You might want to check with your school to see what they will give upper credit for
