Here's the thing, If you choose to go to a B&M (brick and mortar) college. You need to find out what the CLEP policy is for the schools you want to go to. You might have to dig deep on their webpages, you also have to find out if they'll allow you to skip classes or will you have to take other classes to get your degree there. My local University NIU takes a max of 60 CLEP credits I think the local Christian College takes 30 credits or its the other way round. I recommend you do an evaluation of what your interests are and compatible careers and then focus on what you'd like to do from there. Then set out and get an education that will benefit you in both ways. If your religious Crown Financial Ministries sells one for $100 but you'll also find some for free or close to free online if you look. That way you'll have a goal to shoot at. There's an old Hebrew proverb that says without a vision the people perish. We all need goals if we are going to accomplish anything worthwhile. It is difficult to wade through learning all the Presidents if you don't know what your end goal is. Once you've decided then you can focus on what courses will allow you to get your degree at the least cost as its not wise to spend more than you have to. You can still work towards getting a lot of CLEPs done in the meantime. Sometimes the subjects you choose will open your mind to ideas you never thought about which might spark your interest into something you'll enjoy.
Don't forget that gaining college credit by taking exams is one of the reason's we're here. That's mainly possible through the flashcards made available by the owner of this forum : InstantCert Plus of course your hard work in learning and reviewing
