Communications vs Marketing? Which to choose.

[dfrecore]

You can almost test out of both degrees, although the options will be a little bit more than the $100/test that some degrees offer.

For Communications, you can use UExcel or LowCostGenEd to get the Interpersonal Communications course, then CSU-Global & TECEP's to get the rest of your courses including UL. You will have to take the capstone as well.

For Marketing, you will have to take Marketing Research at LSU-DL ($619), but the remaining courses can be gotten via TECEP, PF or CSU-Global. You will also have to take Stats, I know, it sucks if you hate it and are struggling and it will have NOTHING to do with your career (can you tell I have the same issue?).

I personally don't think there is anything wrong with taking "easier" courses. Really, most people do what they're good at, which makes what they're doing "easier". My husband is an IT guy, and thinks all the computer courses are a breeze, while I am in HR/Finance, and think those types of classes are easy. Neither of us is wrong. And why would we take classes/exams in things we're not good at?

in your circumstance, get whatever degree is the easiest for you to get!!
