Looking for some advice on the quickest and easiest way to finish this plan.

[LevelUP]

I was here some time ago and got some help on a computer science degree. Thank you. Turns out I'm not great at math. I cannot do calculus and I cannot do discrete math. 

Discrete Math isn't that hard and can be done in 1-2 weeks.  I would do that at SDC.  

Calculus on the other hand can take months for some people.

But it also said I needed 10 credits from open electives. Can I use the remaining courses I took with Sophia to eliminate those 10? If so, great. That means the first 30 should already be covered.

I wouldn't do any Sophia for the electives.  I would do the W3schools PHP cert which covers the IT213 course you need + 34 credits of electives.

If everything above is correct I would need 35 credits to come from the 50 credits remaining below. 

IT133 Microsoft Office Applications on Demand (Microsoft Office Specialist Cert)
IT190 Information Technology Concepts  (Sophia IT course)
IT213 Software Development Concepts (W3 schools PHP cert)
IT273 Networking Concepts (SDC)

How would you approach the remaining transfer ins? I have heard if you had certain IT certifications you could eliminate a lot of courses.

You want to transfer in max credits you can.  Some IT certifications you can do easily in 1-2 weeks.  Some like the  CCNA could take months.

I actually have no experience in IT so I know it's going to be a struggle to learn some of these concepts. I'm worried some courses at Purdue will hold me up. Any advice on what to take outside of Purdue? What to take at Purdue? If I transfer all 75% in it looks like I would have to do 15 credits + capstone from Purdue so perhaps a better question is what would be the 3 easiest courses to do at Purdue? Also, 3 courses and a capstone should take just one semester you think? I would appreciate any advice from someone who went through this program. 

From a technical point of view, I don't see any courses that I would be worried about.  

If you need to do 22.5 credits at Purdue, that looks like it would be 5 courses.
