Does anyone know of a Science course that's inexpensive, fairly easy, relatively quick, and one credit?
Thanks!

I have only seen them as labs attached to a science class. Can you just do an exam or an Aleks course? It might be three credits but atleast it is done.

:iagree: Labs are usually one credit but they are only given along with a course.
Have you taken any CLEP/DSST? I found Race to save the planet fairly easy.

Plus unless I'm mistaken taking a 3 credit CLEP will get you the 1 science credit plus possibly 2 spillover credits in an elective area.

I hear that Astronomy is also not too bad, but I can't say because I never took it myself. Taking a test would be much easier than trying to find a random one credit course somewhere, I think..

Hi Storyteller,
What area is the credit needed to fill? Is it natural science at tesc? If so, have you considered taking an aleks course?

My eval at TESC looks like this:
Math - Intermediate Algebra - 3 cr (ALEKS) Nat. Sci - Intro to Computers - 3 cr (DSST) (B&M) Business Data Proc - 2 cr (B&M) Applied Busi Stats - 3 cr Now I'm short 1 credit. I've been studying Astronomy but what a snooze! Other than "Race to Save the Planet" what other tests are considered Nat. Sci? I appreciate all your help!
