TESU - BA CS + BS CIS

Whether it's faster or not really depends on you. In general, CLEPs are harder because it's an all or nothing test. You have to study until you are convinced that you will pass. If you don't pass, then you have a long wait before you can try again, so generally, people over-prepare.

Online courses like Sophia allow you to do quizzes and assignments on an incremental basis, and if you need to retake or redo something, you can do it as soon as you are ready. When you do get to a final exam, you already know what should be on it, and failure isn't so big a deal, plus if you've aced the preceeding work, you can often pass the final with a pretty low score.
