I just got my Excelsior evaluation receiving 100 credit hours towards BSLA degree, so I only have the following left:
- 3 courses I'll take with Excelsior (Info Literacy, Cornerstone, Capstone);
- About 5 exams I want to take with CLEP, DSST, Study.com (and, if needed EC).

Any thoughts on the easiest path to finish these 5ish exams?
