Upper-Level Credits for Business - EC - bmills072200 - 03-29-2008
Okay - so I need 4 upper-level classes for my general business degree. The requirements that I received from EC say:
Ethics Requirement
You have not yet satisfied the ethics requirement. Credits from your course or examination in ethics will be applied to the humanities (arts and sciences) or business electives, depending on title, number, level and content.
Organizational Behavior Requirement
You have not yet satisfied the organizational behavior requirement. Credit from your course or examination in organizational behavior will be applied to the social sciences (arts and sciences) or business electives, depending on title, number, level, and content.
Are either the ethics DSST or organizational behavior DSST considered upper-level - I am assuming no? If I take the EC exams for these courses, are those considered upper-level?
Can some one give me an example of what they used for their upper-level requirements for the general business degree at EC?
I know that Money and Banking is upper-level, correct?
Thanks - I'm trying to map out my test schedule for the next month

You are correct on the DSST / EC units and their respective placements. I will advise you on the following and others have found it to be extremely helpful. Excelsior's "study packet" for ethics is so discombobulated and wordy that it's practically another language. I spent in excess of $225 for the 5 books and after feeble attempts to understand (no exaggeration) "If one were to deduce the rationale of the topical arguments as well as by proclamation pre-suppose substantiated as well as quantifiable theories then one must deduce between the two in an attempt to prose various theories and ideas."
Needless to say, you won't understand a word. Spend 14 bucks and buy the dummies guide to ethics. Supplement that with an occasional internet search and you should be fine. Good luck!
