I'm curious as to whether or not the study.com psychology courses transfer over to TESU. If so there's quite a few you can knock out through this site, such as Abnormal Psychology, Lifespan Development Psychology, etc. It's not quite the same as testing out of the classes so to speak but if they all transfer to TESU and possibly as UL in some cases, it could help out with taking fewer TESU courses.

Study.com is a good option, and here is how the classes transfer to TESU, assuming this chart is still up to date...

Ahh that's right. I actually started a thread showing this official transfer guide a minute ago lol. I forgot about the psychology classes being on there.

Coincidentally, I just signed up for this today.
I'm going to knock out Abnormal Psychology and Research Methods in Psychology with it.
I already have a decent foundation in abnormal psych, so I'm going to use the 5 day free trial to refresh, hopefully knock out the exam in the first few days post-trial, and then have a almost a full month to really prepare for Research Methods, in case it's harder than I think. Hopefully I don't need all of that time, but I'll have it if I need it.

Study.com is a good resource, especially for replacing the UExcel exams which are $355, except that there are almost no instances where that UExcel is the only option. But between CLEP, DSST, UExcel, Study.com, SL, TCC, TECEP & CSU-Global, you can get all of your Psych requirements except Ethics in the Social Sciences (and someone may know how flexible TESU is about that; for instance, will Propero's $300 Criminal Justice Ethics work, since Criminal Justice is an SocSci?). If so, then the degree is totally test-out-able except for the capstone.

What's interesting to me about this list is that some courses are actually lower division at study.com when they're upper division elsewhere. For instance DSST World Religions is REL-405 at TESU, but study.com's is REL-270. Psychology of Adulthood and Aging transfers in as 300-level if you take the UExcel, but apparently study.com's course is considered 200-level. On the other hand, abnormal psychology seems to transfer in as PSY-350 no matter where you take it. So it's good to see an actual transfer guide instead of making the mistake of assuming every exam/course with a similar title will transfer the same way.

Blergh, their abnormal psych class is based in DSM IV and I'm familiar with DSM5, but not IV. I have to learn some new, outdated concepts banghead

See if the Abnormal Psych TECEP is any better, and then switch your Study.com 2nd course to something else?

The good news is that there are enough UL courses that it doesn't matter much - you only need 5 courses out of 11 to be UL, and the capstone is UL as well. So not a deal-breaker.

They're the only two courses I need from there, haha. I can manage. It's different, but not so drastically that I can't adapt.
Not sure about TECEP, but pretty sure UEXCEL is DSM IV, so TECEP is likely similar.
