Iâm very new and like most people, Iâm trying to develop a âroadmapâ of test I will need to take to get my degree from Excelsior.
Please critique my roadmap and let me know of any changes/additions I need to make.

Nice formatting on your roadmap. I like the color coding. It looks like you have a lot of exams listed under "Done" but you indicate that you're very new, so I'm not sure how to interpret that, but here's what I would take a second look at:
1. You list DSST Substance Abuse and DSST Drug and Alcohol Abuse in a bunch of different places. I think Substance Abuse is the new version of Drug and Alcohol abuse. If I'm correct, they're the same test. Also, I believe you can only get credit for one exam one time--and I believe that Excelsior is still awarding lower level credit for this exam.
2. CLEP Educational Psychology is a lower-level exam.
That's what I see at first blush. I was a business student so I'm not as familiar with the LA degree requirements. Let's see what others find. Nice job!
