1st Timer Here...In Information Overload! How to begin?

[onthecob]

Hello Everyone,

I've been reading over threads for the past few nights but am definitely in info. overload. Yikes!

I'm starting from 0, credit wise and unfortunately not a lot of disposable income.

Unsure of whether I'll be going for a BA or BS. With a BS it would appear there are more options later on concerning Masters degrees...I guess I'll worry about the Bachelors first. Curious how some of you decided which direction to go in?

I thought until I can plan out an exact plan of attack, I could at least get a few credits under my belt.

I'll take the ALEKS (basic math credits, right?)...they are inexpensive & I can acquire a few credits that way.

I'll take a few FEMA's...free credits there. How many are truly applicable to garnering a degree?



I'm just wondering what is the best way to begin to accrue credits when money is a bit of an issue...yet I want to get started.

Then the decision is which among the Big Three is my best option.


Thank you for any responses. :hurray:
