    Hello, I'm trying to help a distance learning person that I work with. She currently does not have the internet and is interested in testing out of the classes I've listed. I've come up with CLEP, DANTES, Ohio University and Ponsi as suggestions. She is a Thomas Edison student so the GRE is not a option for credit. Suggestions appreciated. Have a peaceful evening.

    Ohio University or Portfolio credit are probably her options for these. If she's talking about basic Euclidean Geometry then I doubt she'll get credit for that if she already has Calculus I and II. Is she trying to pick up a math major?

    Good Morning,These are her last classes to complete her degree in math. She was seriously ill for one month during her last semester and ran into little cooperation at her previous school. She was enrolled in those courses prior to the life glitch. Have a great day.

    Another option would be for her to complete these courses through self-paced correspondence (sometimes called "guided independent study") courses. She could find most of them at Lousiana State University or University of Iowa. The LSU courses are a bit cheaper, but they are both priced pretty reasonably. It's not quite as quick as an exam, but she could tear through the courses pretty quickly if she wanted, so it might not actually take any longer than studying for exams. Math 2057 (Multidimensional Calculus) from LSU should count for the Calc 3 requirement, but she'll want to confirm that with an advisor first.

    For a good listing of math courses you can check here.
