Help to finding A degree/plan.

Ouch, those are over $1,000 plus per credit. Not per course! Dang, you have big pockets to hold all those credit cards in your wallet...
If you're still looking for an affordable degree, go for the BALS with no concentration, or a concentration in communications. https://www.newschool.edu/registrar/tuition-and-fees/

I'll most likely go with a BALs with a concentration, not sure in what yet though. I won't use newschool. :-) I'll use TESU most likely.

Okay so, i've been trying Straighterline for a few days and it has been a really positive experience so far. I've almost finished both intro to religions (Got 99% before the final exam) and Western Civilization 1 (3/6 of the exams done and 98% in grade so far)
I'm thinking to do some more courses on Straighterline before my sub expires. The obvious one would be Western Civilization 2 and no clue about the other one.

Can this course cover ''QUANTITATIVE LITERACY'' in gen ed?

Yes, but that is not considered one of the better laid-out courses through SL.  You might want to do the Business Stats course instead.  Cheaper, and better overall.

Ok thanks! I'll take business stats instead of College Algebra/Stats then.

Is it possible to re-take exams in business stats? (Besides the first graded exam)

Ok, nvm this question. I passed it the first time. 

So far i've done the following with Straighterline since I got the membership 20th of December:

American Goverment
Business Stats
Cultural Anthropology

Introduction to Religion
Western Civ 1
Western Civ 2.

At the moment i'm doing introduction to criminal justice. But I think i'll buy another course tonight, just not sure which one. 

I'm thinking about Introduction to Nutrition or maybe one of their CS courses. Any good suggestions?

Keep your spreadsheet updated to find out what courses you have completed and what courses are yet to complete. You should take nutrition as it’s a science, it’ll go into the required sciences. You can take IT Fundamentals if you need a computer course. Do you still have a spreadsheet template from dfrecore or one that I modified handy? If so, keep updating it each course you complete. If you make changes, or anything, update it with cheaper, easier, faster options.

I didn't update the spreadsheet yet, but I should probably start doing it. And to answer your question, no. I'm just trying to fill up my general education credits atm, but i'll start tracking them.
