Hi!
A few questions first-
1) Have you taken any of the science CLEPs or DSSTs?
2) What natural science credits do you already have? Some of these exams could be considered duplicate credit.
Keeping that in mind, here are my suggestions:
Environment & Humanity DSST (3)
Astronomy DSST (3)
These two were the "easiest" for me, and I enjoyed learning about them. The Biology CLEP is also very doable, and would give you 6 credits for the price of one CLEP. The Natural Science CLEP is mostly biology, mixed with chemistry, physics, and few misc. categories. I recommend taking the Biology CLEP before the NS CLEP if you attempt both.
Does your school require you to have a lab? There are lots of options for online classes with labs if you want to go that route. Let us know!
