help with eval - darkmatter - 08-18-2021

I transferred in 18 credits from Sophia and I still have 9 credits needed for the liberal studies - math/natural science concentration. I don't know why anatomy and physiology I & II aren't in there. It also seems like some math credits could go in there and other credits used for electives. I've attached the entire evaluation. I'm not sure what to do or what other classes to take. 

My eval is too large to take a single page screenshot, so I put it on imgur. https://imgur.com/a/AiSMMW1

The reason why your biology classes aren't listed is that they are LL credits and you need UL credits now. Only some Psychology classes count for the NSM concentration. If you switched to Social Sciences instead of NSM, more of your Psych credits would be used.

For the NSM concentration, there are a handful of courses that should work: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Sample_TESU_BA_Liberal_Studies_Degree_Plan#Liberal_Studies_-_Natural_Sciences_&_Mathematics_Concentration

That makes so much sense. For some reason I thought that the 18 UL credits had to come from sections 2, 3 and 4.

I think I'll drop this and work on the 3 classes for my psych degree. I'll see if any other BALS degrees work without a bunch of extra coursework.

You might be able to get the Social Sciences concentration with just one extra class but I am not 100% positive. I don't think you can fill it with JUST UL Psych credits, so you'd need one more subject. I think that TEEX's Death Investigation for $75 might work but you'd have to ask your advisor if "AOJ-340 Criminalistics" would fill the requirements for the Social Sciences concentration. 99% sure that it'll work but there's still a slight doubt.

Thanks! I'll ask. I'm less set on a BALS degree but a 2 for 1 just seems like it's worth getting, especially since I'm paying the residency waiver.

Yes, your sciences are lower level, they won't come through properly. I also recommend the TEEX course, in addition to that, I would go for Coopersmith and Davar, you just study their materials/power point presentations and complete an exam that is proctored - hardly any assignments that have writing. That should net you some Psych and other UL courses for both degrees...
