dude, i want to do the same thing as you do. my degree is conferred in 6 days from excelsior, and i have 3 weeks before my MBA starts. I've completed all of the Straighterline classes, and they are just sitting there waiting to be transferred to an institution.
If I can do that 6 credit test that someone mentions above, I think I will still need 1 more Upper Division class and I am good to go.

My choices are: Math/Nat Sci, Computer Science which will both require taking an actual course to get needed credit, or some other interesting degree that I can test out of.
For comp sci I need: data structures, discrete math, and 13 comp sci electives, some being upper and 3 being 100 level.
For Math/Nat Sci I need: 6 UL science credits, +18 more additional credits to meet the 24 new credit requirement
I am bummed that I realized I cannot fly through my MBA this year due to financial reasons but also excited about the opportunity to get back into the CLEP/DSST/TECEP/Straighterline/Penn Foster mode.
So what are the degrees that can be completed with testing or Penn Foster/SL.com correspondence courses?
I am interested in the following topics: history, psychology, anything with math or science, management, economics
I think history and psychology are pretty well covered through testing options but am I missing another degree that can be achieved without taking a bunch of actual courses?
