I am registered under the Military Degree Completion Program, which has no fee (the $2900 one) but requires 24 TESC credits (including TECEPs).
Essentially, I am looking to find the ones that you fine people found the easiest to study for/pass without any prior knowledge. Any info will greatly be appreciated.
I have to agree with Yanji, at least give us your major so we know what will help with your degree. Many of the TECEP exams are very specific so as far as "easy" goes I'd say the easiest are the ones which overlap with CLEP or DSST such as Technical Writing and the English Comp exams. They provide study information for each of the exams if you open up the exam title and click "view exam description". Thomas Edison State College: Course Offerings
Unlike the majority of CLEP/DSST exams, many of these have short answer or essay questions so I would say none are as easy as some of the CLEP & DSST courses like CLEP A & I Lit or DSST Prin. of Supervision. I don't think any of them can be described as passing without prior knowledge, you'll do more studying for these than you do for CLEP & DSST because the exams are either short answer/essay or are very specific in what they ask.
My completed "non-traditional" credits include 27 credits from CLEP, 30 credits from DSST, 6 credits from ALEKS, 19 credits from FEMA courses including PDS, 3 credits from NFA courses, 10 credits from ACE Workplace Training, 3 credits from a TESC TECEP exam, and 3 credits from a TESC PLA course.
