I've spent two days reading this forum, and I've got a few questions I haven't seen clear answers on.
1. If I plan to graduate from TESC, do I need to enroll before I take tests that I can use for credit? (I have 0 credits right now, so I don't have to worry about what will transfer, since I need all the generic basics.)
2. I've also read a bunch about the Strayer Challenge exams, and for $20 a pop, it seems like a fairly low-risk way of testing the waters and seeing how many credits I can potentially BS my way through. Does anyone have experience in transferring Strayer credit to TESC?
3. My main goal right now is to amass as many credits as quickly as I can, as cheaply as I can. (Really though, isn't that what we're all here for?) I'm trying to A, help motivate myself by having a pile of credits to pat myself on the back for, and B, prove to my SO that I can do this quickly without breaking the bank. The two things highest on my list are Strayer Challenges and the Saylor credit classes. Are there any other low-cost ways to earn credits that I've missed?
If it helps to know this to answer my questions, I'm looking to bolster my experience as a corporate writer, so anything business-ish, communications, marketing, project management would be a good degree for me, but I'm ultimately choosing whatever's quickest/cheapest.
Thank you all in advance!
