The free ethics course can be completed in an hour or two. Each of the free TEEX courses can be completed in one day. Your speed counts when money is tight. Use the free courses to figure out realistically how fast you can get through this stuff.
I was motivated, and there is no possible way I could complete ALEKS College Algebra in a day. It took me WEEKS to get though it. I probably didn't even complete it in 1 month-long membership cycle. I also thought the TEEX courses were long, and it took me at least a week to get through each module, and I finally gave up after 2 modules and figured there was a faster way for me to get some credits (although not cheaper certainly).
OP - No one can tell you how long it will take you to get through any course, because it is highly dependent upon you - how well you already know the material going in, how many hours a day you can devote to studying, how good of a test-taker you are, etc. We can give you a ballpark, but to tell someone that they can finish a math class in a day is probably not the average. Maybe SOME people can, but I'm willing to bet most can't. For anyone who struggled with math in high school, or who haven't been in school for decades, it is improbable that they can finish in a day (and I did well in and enjoyed math in HS, and took Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra II, Trig & Analytic Geometry, graduated in 88, and couldn't pass ALEKS' College Algebra in what seemed like forever - maybe 2 hours a day for weeks and weeks to pass).
I would start with the inexpensive or easy-to pass courses, and then work into harder things from there. Take all of your Psych courses together, which should make studying each subsequent course/exam easier.
