Recommendations for TESU's "Understanding the Physical and Natural World"?
#1
I remember hearing somewhere here that Study.com's "Intro to Computing" would work, is this still the case?

Do you guys have any other recommendations for this requirement?

Thanks in advance!
#2
Any physical science, natural science, or non-applied computer science should work here.

I think math courses may also fit in here.

Popular options include the Straighterline Nutrition and Environmental Science courses. Study.com equivalents would work too.
Working on: Debating whether I want to pursue a doctoral program or maybe another master's degree in 2022-23

Complete:
MBA (IT Management), 2019, Western Governors University
BSBA (Computer Information Systems), 2019, Thomas Edison State University
ASNSM (Computer Science), 2019, Thomas Edison State University

Math won't work here, just NatSci and CompSci courses. Too many options to list for you, there are literally dozens using the main providers we discuss on here all the time.

If you're looking for free, Modern States/CLEP has science and computer courses. Cheap - use Saylor.

I have taken 10 different courses from various providers that could fulfill this requirement. I highly recommend Sophia Enviromental Science and Davar Introduction to Computers.

Do they have to be different or could I get away with doing, say, two computer science courses or two physics courses?

Any 2 courses you want, as long as they don't duplicate.  So 2 computer courses, 2 physics courses, whatever - as long as their course equivalency numbers are different.

Oh, rad! Thanks!

I'll probably do Study's 'Intro to Computing' and either 'Information Systems and Computer Applications' or 'Intro to Astronomy'
It seems like there's a lot of good options actually

Be sure to have the computer courses planned into your eval before assuming they will work there.
