Jake I apologize for jumping on you...
I would venture to guess that very, very, very few people on this board try and cheat....and if they do, I doubt they stay long. There are easier ways to earn credit if you are a cheater, then going through this marathon.
People here are earning degrees from TESC, Excelsior, etc...not FEMA or Straighterline. The amount of credit that anyone would even earn from FEMA or SL is minimal. Your 4 FEMA credits is probably par for the course when all is said and done. Everyone gets excited when they find the board because the can get credit for FEMA, but what percentage actually use it ? In many cases, the same goes for ACE Credit, you fill in here and there. They are filler courses.
The majority of people earning their degrees and certainly their majors earn those from upper level courses and tests either taken at TESC, Excelsior or other RA schools...especially now that there is a 30 credit upper level minimum.
I also apologize for starting the SL accounting thread that refers to the online resources. I thought it would be short lived, but it has taken on a life of its own. It was out of character and beneath this forum and I shouldn't have posted it. My mistake.
On a lighter note, Adams State has a laundry list of independent study business courses that may provide a better alternative for you than PF Distance Learning, Business Courses, Extended Studies, Adams State College
