I guess I'm the new guy...

Again, I have a spreadsheet, but you really need to understand how you want to take courses/exams before it's filled in completely. It does no good to have a spreadsheet filled with SL courses if you don't want to use SL to take them. I regularly get asked "can I take a different course than the one in your spreadsheet?" as if they are required to take the courses I suggested. So, I can put a generic spreadsheet in here, but in order to understand it and your options (you can take almost every required course another way, and there are plenty of ways to get the Gen Ed courses as well), you need to understand what all of the different sources offer and how they are different from each other.

My spreadsheet really just has the cheapest options available. I use free courses first (The Institute, TEEX, NFA), then cheap (ALEKS, Shmoop, Saylor), then into the more expensive options (SL, Study.com, CLEP, DSST).

But first, please read through the Beginner's Guide to make sure you understand the process. For instance, I would recommend the CLEP for English Comp I & II, but if you don't live near a testing center, or get test anxiety, then that's probably not the best way for YOU to take the course/exam. Instead, you would want to do SL. But you need to understand the pros/cons of the different methods. For the CLEP, it's fairly obvious. But for SL, do you really want to do all the work required for this course? I personally don't. Another option is the TECEP's, one of which I took. Their format stinks, but the test was not difficult, and I was glad to get it over with in a couple of hours, from home.
