- do CLEPs instead, they're real easy, just did it over the weekend.

- you can do CLEP, but it was a harder course for me.
Also it might be a good idea to just wait till the kid is out of HS for some of these exam topics are covered nicely in the last 2 years. Then they can zip thru the exams over summer post-HS. Also, to try and accellerate, try doing AP courses in HS and those will all contribute to credit. I got 18 credits thru AP alone in the last 2 years of HS. Plus I got to admit, adding on anything beyond the basic HS requirement + 3/4 APs a year would have been too much for me (I say this as someone who got a 98th percentile SAT and 4.0 GPA). Not saying your kid can't do it, just for me it would have been way too much.
Thanks for your insight!
On the CLEP site, it says 3 semester hours. I was just going by that. Awesome that you can get 6 at TESU, but you have to be 18 to apply to TESU and I wanted to do this before she turned 18.
Thanks for sharing your experience, too. I'll definitely consider it.
