Think is possible to have all this classes done by the end of this year? I'm horrible at math and i will need tutoring in the subject.
I speak Spanish so i should be able to take a CLEP for foreign language and pass it with no problem.
Which of this classes should i attempt to CLEP and which should i attempt to complete via Distance Learning?

My goal is to eventually get in one of the the 6 Maritime Academies here in the states. I spoke to several admission reps and it seems like I'm going to need all this classes in order to be accepted since i have a GED. They have all agreed that CLEP exams are fine for most of the credits, but they say i should take traditional courses in English & Algebra and clep will not be accepted.
At the moment I'm not enrolled in a college so should i just start taking CLEP exams and take some independent study classes from LSU? or should i enroll in a community college? what would be the best way to satisfy this requirements in your opinion.
I have no problem taking a CLEP in Spanish & Computers i might not even need to study and I'm almost done with all my Fema classes ( it should look good in the application I'm planning on credit banking them in TESC)

StraighterLine

Interesting.. so ok when i finish the straighterline program and get Algebra & English 1 transcribed to let's say Fort Hays State, How can i take all the clep,fema,ft hayes credits and put it in 1 transcript? instead of having transcripts from different colleges.

Why should the fact of whether or not you have a GED versus a H.S Diploma have any basis on how many classes you are required to take or on the fact of whether or not you are accepted for??
If you had a H.S. Diploma would that make a difference?
I know where you can get one that is accepted by all school, the government, etc.
PM and I will send you the information. It is a valid HS and you can get it ASAP. No classes and no wait, and no hassle. All you need is to pay for the test. The good thing is that they give you the questions in advance : )
