TESC BSBA Accounting degree plan review

[Kones]

Okay, that makes sense! DSST and TECEP are about the same price depending on how much the proctor charges. I think difficulty depends on the TECEP. I've heard members say some are easier than others. The Federal Income Tax one I took was rough, but I didn't take any of the ones you have listed. Maybe try a forum search and see if anyone has any input on the difficulty.

Also, another thought. I don't know if you do well with Literature or Science, but you could take one of the 6 credit CLEP tests and that would eliminate a few of the tests in your electives section. American Literature, Biology, Humanities, and Social Sciences and History are all 6 credits. Because they are worth 6 credits they are usually broader and a little more difficult, but nothing that isn't doable. Plus, you pay the same amount and get 6 credits instead of 3!

Oh, really?!? I hadn't heard that about the DSST vs. PF class. I took the DSST and don't remember it being too hard. If you find the thread, I'd like to see it!


Good luck!

Thanks for the feedback! I appreciate it, especially since you've already completed the same degree I'm after.

You're right about the 6 credit CLEPs. I should really look into those more. I'm planning on taking the College Comp and A&I Lit for 6 credits each, but I could easily save myself some time and a few hundred dollars by taking a couple more.

I realize some of these threads are pretty old and the test potentially could have changed in that time, but here are some places where I read feedback about the Principles of Finance DSST being difficult. Or at least having that reputation.
