I was in a similar situation as you about 3 months ago. I wanted to get my degree, knew I wanted to take some exams to speed the process, but didn't know how or if it was even possible, the only difference is that I had about 60 credits froma previous college transfered in...
Then I found this forum and instantcert...
Since then, I have completed 30 hours in about a month and a half and I found Excelsior which is the college that I am enrolled.
I would strongly encourage you to look into Excelsior or one of the other 2 zero residency colleges. They provide the easiest means by which to achieve a degree without having to go to boring classes for the rest of your life. This is also the cheapest way to get your degree depending on how you choose to get your credits completed. Since you are obviously already interested in testing, then this is a perfect and inexpensive option for you.
I never thought that I could do what I am doing right now through testing, but it can be done.
My advise: Sign up with instantcert...look into what college you want to go with and get rolling...
Best of luck...there is a light at the end of the tunnel...
Cool name by the way...Adrian Peterson is an awesome running back for the Vikings
