Need 54 Credits in 6 months...help please!

[MNomadic]

Before anyone can give you recommendations/suggestions, please share what classes you have completed. Ideally, share what your current transcript looks like. Also, do you have a copy of your school's Straighterline and CLEP transfer guidelines? It will be hard for anyone to make suggestions before knowing what overlaps.

Sure! Attached is my degree audit (my previous attachment was an excerpt of what was needed). I was just given verbal permission from the Registrar today that I can fulfill the 54 credits from either CLEP, Straighterline, or a combination of both. There are no other limitations.

Also, I have completed my Science or Mathematics Elective (that not not been updated on my transcript yet).

Thanks!

It would still be helpful to know what the CLEPs/Straighterline courses transfer in as since some may overlap. Also, some CLEPs are recommended for more than 3 credits, so they may be a good way to get through more credits quicker IF they accept them that way. 

If you already know french, german, or Spanish, take those CLEPs, as they're worth 6-9 credits each.

If you like science or already know a good bit, you can get 18 credits for taking chem, bio, and natural science.

If you're good at math, you can potentially take college math clep for 6 credits.

Some others that are considered easy and can likely be passed with little to no prep include information systems, management, marketing, and analyzing/interpreting literature.

Straighterline I don't know as much about but I know if you push yourself, you should be able to finish some of those classes within days/weeks.
