(ask quigongene) Most of the other certs people can do in a couple of weeks.

Check the DF Wiki for the WGU Cybersecurity plan.

Already have A+, Net+, and Sec+. Won't have to worry about PenTest+ if I pass this CEH exam I'm sitting for in a couple of weeks. **fingers crossed**

I'll have to check the wiki for that plan

From sophia, I'd definitely do:

- communication at work
- stats and algebra foundations
- project management
- web dev foundations
- intro to IT if you need it
- environmental science if you need a science
- all of these all of the above can be done very quickly

Do both your data management classes at study.com(lots of overlap). 

Save critical thinking/logic and ethics in tech for WGU, since both of those are very quick. 

In addition to the above sources, and CLEPs, look into Saylor as you can potentially knock some courses out for $5 each(if they're available) link

As mentioned, feel free to reference WGU's own transfer partner pages to verify transfer courses: link

Also, which AP exam have you taken?
