My Experience with Jay Cross/DIY Degree

[cookderosa]

If I were you, I would ask him to put it in a format similar to what Excelsior shows as their requirements, so you know exactly which exams line up with which requirements. Then you'll be able to ask for alternate exams/courses.

For example, you took the Environment & Humanity DSST, what section was that for? Why did he choose that one for you? What other alternatives are there?

I don't think I'd like it if someone picked out all of the exams I should take. How does he/she know what I'm good at, and what I want to do? Did they take any of that into account? Did they give you any options other than exams, like Straighterline? Do they know what else is out there? Do they have alternatives if you don't pass an exam? Are they grouped together to make studying easier? Are easier exams first, with harder ones coming later?

I think you can get much better advice from the people here than you can from DIY Degree.

yes, it kinda takes the "yourself" out of DIY
