socalgirl,
There are good threads that cover a similar path. Try this one first. http://www.degreeforum.net/excelsior-tho...-tesc.html Please note that the Straighterline Business Communication can now cover the Gen Ed requirement instead of having to take the TESC course.
International Business may be tough to completely test out of....so you may have to weigh how important the complete testing out option is. The General Mgmt concentration can almost be completely done thru testing out. If you are looking at self-paced business course options check out Business Courses - Distance Learning - Extended Studies - Adams State College
When starting from scratch make sure you obtain the latest Official CLEP Guide which costs about $20 and has sample tests for all of their exams. There may be subjects that you can test out of cold. I did the 6 credit Humanities, Social Sciences and History, and Analyzing and Interpreting Lit CLEP's with under an hour of study. Everyone is different, but I am saying that the book is invaluable for gauging your readiness for any of the CLEP exams. There also sample test exams for DSST. Make sure you utilize this site too Free Clep Prep.com
