TESU suggested courses
#1
Well, it's finally time for me to complete my courses at TESU for the BA in Computer Science. I need 9 credits for the degree. I need 16 credits to avoid the residency fee. I'm not sure how this is going to go because I can only get financial aid (loans) for the 9 credits. If that's considered full-time, it might not matter because I'm doing flat-rate tuition.

I'm doing:

Capstone 3  credits
Assembly Programming 3 credits
Artificial Intelligence 3 credits

Then, I need 7 credits which can be whatever as long as they count towards residency (online, guided study, or epack)

Course 1 (3 credits)
Course 2 (3 credits)
Course 3 (one credit) - Thinking of just doing PLA-100 or whatever it is.

Any suggestions? I would rather to do something easy with cheap textbooks. I thought about doing Chemistry 2 with lab and then just not doing the PLA since Chemistry is 4 credits. However, I think I'm going to be really busy ...

Social Psychology is 6 credits but is definitely not double the workload of a regular 3 credit class, so I would recommend that one. ePacks could also be a good choice, because you can pretty much study however you want as long as you pass the test.

That you consider Chemistry 2 an easy class <gulp> wow. Ok, so let me say that I will second the suggestion of Social Psychology for 6 credits. I took it, and it's a lot of reading / writing, but if you've already taken any psychology or sociology courses, you'll have no problem at all.

I would suggest the 1 credit literature class - I think it's still called Jane Austen. That would give you 7 total.
