Hi All,
I've posted on this forum a time or two years ago, but wasn't truly dedicated or focused enough to follow through. I've been working since graduating high school, and I've managed to do pretty well for myself even without the degree, but it's always something I've wanted. I have the time, energy, and hunger to accomplish this once and for all. I'm highly motivated, just looking for friendly advice and a guiding hand perhaps. I've read quite a few threads about the different options for schools and majors but I'm kind of lost in the sauce. I need clear advice for-dummies type of advice. With the credits I have now, what is the fastest way for me to get a bachelors degree? Which school do you think has the best options for someone like me?
It's finally time to get this monkey off my back!
I really appreciate any help/advice!

What kind of degree do you want?: In truth, I don't care what sort of degree I get, the fastest and cheapest option is ideal. Though I will say I'm not great with math and sciences so any coursework with the least of those as possible would be great, but not a deal breaker.
