UExcel Research Methods in Psychology and Social Psychology - Ben2020 - 12-30-2020

Hi, 

Has anyone taken UExcel Research Methods in Psychology or Social Psychology? If so, how did you prepare? Do they transfer to TESU?

Thanks!

Hi, my daughter just graduated from TESU with a BA in Psych. She used the UExcel Social Psych for the upper level required social psych credits (3 ll credits were from Study.com). She also used Study.com for her Research Methods in Psych credits.
We didn't prep much for the UL Social Psych, 1) because she'd taken the LL SDC course https://study.com/academy/course/uexcel-social-psychology-course.html
and 2) because there's not a lot of info out there.

Thanks for the info!! Can you tell me if the UExcel transferred to her transcript as a CR or letter grade? I want to find out if it affects the TESU GPA

Nothing taken outside of TESU changes the TESU GPA. It might have an effect on total GPA if you are trying to get into a grad school later but that is a completely separate issue to how TESU calculates your GPA.

It was a letter grade. If it helps, with the SDC prep course and no other studying, she got a B. It was her next to last course/test and she was just done but didn't find it difficult with all the other psych courses she'd taken prior.
