TESC BSAST in IT, newbie getting started

[ryoder]

If you want to get started now, go get a couple of CLEP REA books that you know you need.
Information Systems and Computer Applications for example equates to COS-101
I highly recommend Macro and MicroEconomics for your social sciences because they are CLEP exams, are relevant to business and are required for a business degree and are required for entrance into an MBA later on. Here is how I might start if I were you.

One more thing. The BSAST IT is heavy on IT credits. You cannot test out of most of these so you might want to considering doing a BSBA CIS which has more testable credits on it and fewer IT credits. Go down the IT path but make sure your electives are also required courses for the business degree and you will have this option later on.



CLEP Info Sys and Comp App - natural science and computer science 101
MIS DSST - upper level technology credit
CLEP Macro - Micro/Macro are social sciences and required for business
CLEP Micro
ALEKs College Algebra - ALEKs is a learning and testing tool in one so get an algebra for dummies book and use ALEKs to practice and earn credit
ALEKs PreCalc
ALEKs Statistics
DSST Tech Writing
Straighterline Business Communication - Humanities and required for a business degree
