IT DEPENDS ON YOU, A COMBINATION IS PROBABLY THE RIGHT ANSWER. I WOULD SUGGEST STARTING WITH SOMETHING EASIER IN EACH CASE AND BUILDING CONFIDENCE AND AND TESTING EXPERIENCE AS YOU GO.
Here is my plan I am thinking of :
Charter Oaks State College General Studies Degree,
MAY OR MAY NOT BE BEST CHOICE FOR YOU. TESU HAS SOME OPTIONS THAT ARE MORE TEST FRIENDLY, BUT THEY WILL NOT TAKE FEMA IN ANY WAY.
(As far as college credit I only have philosophy, Intro to logic from about 11 years ago and English Composition I).
So I will,
-Take the math course thru Aleks. I will start today.
GOOD.
-Take all of the FEMA courses and transfer them to Fredrick Community College. I will be starting today as well.
COSC TAKES THEM DIRECT AND FOR FREE FROM FEMA...NO NEED TO PAY FOR THE FCC PROCESS AT ALL
-I will take my Gen eds thru CLEP and DSST (only the easy classes).
OK
-I will also take other Gen eds thru independent study programs like Western Washington University. (Any other recommendations please let me know)
CSU-PUEBLO AND UNIVERSITY OF IDAHO INDEPENDENT STUDIES, NONE ARE REALLY COST EFFECTIVE ANYMORE, PENN FOSTER HAS MANY ACE APPROVED COURSES MOSTLY IN BUSINESS THAT ARE AROUND $300/COURSE THESE WILL GENERALLY WORK AT THE BIG 3
Also, how would this look for my Master's Degree program. I need to have at least 3.20 GPA.
THEN BE SURE THERE IS SUFFICIENT GRADED WORK FOR THEM TO SEE
Do you guys have any other ideas or advice? It has always been my dream to have my degree. I am so motivated . I just need a really good easy plan. (Although I know it won't be very easy)
Take a look at my signature line the AS using FEMA from COSC is pretty well fleshed out. See what TESU has to offer as well.

I'm always happy to complete the free application waiver for those applying to WGU (I get a free gift from WGU for this). Just PM me your first/last name and a valid email so I can complete their form.
