    Hi.. I'm hoping to finally go for a BA in LA this year from Excelsior, and I'm currently trying to plan how to going about accomplishing this. I have read quite a bit on "BA in 4 Weeks" on this, but I'm still a little confused.. has anyone else done this ? What I basically wish to know is the order in which the tests need to be taken (I'm planning on going with the CLEP and ECE route), and also which are the easiest math and science test I can take. Also, some recommendations for study materials would be helpful as well.

    Thanks very much in advance for any help!!

    the order of tests does not matter at Excelsior. Take CLEP, DANTES, ECE and Ohio University Exams in any order you wish.

    The easiest math and science?? that depends on you and your experience. CLEP Chemistry seems totally hard to me, but CLEP Biology seems like its going to be easy

    the BA in 4 weeks has a list for exam difficulty and a list of study materials for each exam

    I've only taken a couple of exams, the DANTES Intro to World Religions was extremely easy for me. Others have found it difficult. The DANTES Intro to the Modern Middle East was killer for me.

    the Psych exams are pretty easy, but boring for me.

    so it all depends on you
