Natural sciences/mathematics @ TESC

[gone_anon]

Is there anyone here that is doing(or recently finished) this program at TESC?

It would be great if you could share with me your course/test layout for the degree.

..whoops, I meant to post this in the college's Forum

I'm doing it right now.
I'm taking computer architecture for 3cr and the environmental science for 6cr, both upper level.
I also took Anatomy and Physiology I&I at straighterline.com for 6CR 200 level and CLEP BIO for 6CR 100 level and that made the required 12 CR in one subject.
I am using MIS DSST for an upper level along with 2 other courses. Penn Foster systems analysis and design is upper level also.

You need a heavy dose of upper level that are impossible to get by testing out alone so you need to transfer or take some courses for some of them.

I finished mine last year. Your degree plan will vary depending on what area you are interested in andwhat if any prior credits you have. I had General Chem I & II and Organic chem I & II from a CC plus about 16 other science credits so I took tyhe Natural Science CLEP and TESC's Global Environmental Change and that gave me a GPA and a total of 45 science credits.

If you are more interested in Math you can have more of those credits or you can go like Ryoder with more computer classes. If you let us know what you have and what you are interested in we can help you lay out more of your plan.

I think it is possible to test out of the UL courses as well, but there aren't a lot of options. Here are the options on the the UL side of which I am aware:

MIS DSST 3 credits
Network Technology TECEP 3 credits
Biology and the Future of Man Ohio U Credit by Exam 3.33 credits
Bioethics Ohio U exam 3.33 credits
Calculus IV Ohio U exam 2.67 credits
Differential Equations Ohio U exam 2.67 credits
Pathophysiology ECE 3 credits

As you can see, it won't work for the math-phobic.
