I've always been very interested in cheap, that's for certain; however, I fear the CLEP due to my inability to memorize factoids and previous experience with IT certification exams that took entirely too long for the payoff. It's just not my strong point. Also, after examining the options available at my community college, $45-60/credit seems downright reasonable...
Also, the time/money ratio is tipping. I want this taken care of, my business is not doing super well and I blame that largely on the time I'm spending on ALEKS and SL. Additionally, instead of spending time with my wife I'm staring at my computer, and I'm just so tired of it. I've already got the FEMA stuff done, and if I can focus on my business and have this degree maybe I can recoup some cost. Also there may be some unexpected assistance from my grandfather! This, of course, is extremely good news.
So although it was unlikely I would do something like this before, I think I may have to at this point if I'm serious about completing this soon given my current circumstance.
So although I'm undecided if I'm willing to pay that much, please do not hesitate to give me data. This approach is tickling my fancy at the moment.
I'm off to look at the degree plan on EC's site right now. Will post with thoughts when I'm done.
