Help! Pursue CLEP/DANTES independent of College goals?
#1
So, I have a question, and I am open to any and all feedback.

I'm currently a "student" at UoPhoenix, aiming for a degree in business.

I thought it seemed like a good objective, though I am currently in the process of fulfilling the "basic" credit criteria.

Outside of these "gened" classes and that general "learn nothing" type of classes for self-starters, I have a bit of a dilemma.

In the UoPhoenix-land I filed a "PLAC" recently, to try to get my past certifications applied to some of the general credits.
(I hold a large number of Cisco, Microsoft and other technology certificates)

So, now that the situation is semi-laid.

Should I continue my educational track at UoPhoenix to fulfill some general requirements, continue to pursue attempting to transfer in PLAC (Prior Learning Assessment Credit), or attempt some other avenues in this?

The other subset of this, is should I take a whole series of CLEP/DANTES exams in order to have them fulfilled in general?

I imagine in no short-order I'd have all of the exams completed over the course of a few months (with dedication and and motivation).

All of you experienced in these tracks, who have been in these situations - I'm open and looking for your advice and guidance on this!

I'm not adverse to changing schools or anything of the sorts.

(My current UoP credit is 3 credits in Liberal Arts (GEN101) and 3 credits in Communication Arts (COM102).

So, experts and masters alike - please help! Smile
