dfrecore Wrote:TESU does not say that these courses HAVE to be UL, they are just offered as UL courses at TESU.
You can take them at your CC and be fine, you just need to make sure that you have 15cr of UL (+ capstone) in the major. I would plan out which courses you're going to take at your CC, and which ones you're going to take via testing, to make sure that you get the 15cr of UL you need ahead of time.
Also, Org Theory is not listed as an elective at TESU, you would probably want to get it pre approved before you take it.
Also, since you don't want to take a bunch of science courses ahead of time, take Computers instead. They will count in the Understanding the Physical & Natural World, without getting you into trouble. (Nutrition will already go there, so you need 1 more). I suggest Intro to Computers via DSST or Study.com. If you have time, I would also do Intermediate Algebra at ALEKS if you don't already have that.
Thanks! Sometimes you need another "voice" to guide you during this madness. I didnt bite off more than I can chew, however I did bite off quite a bit and will likely be taking just 6 credits in the fall to complete my degree (SOS-450 since its offered nowhere else but super expensive TESU and of course the dreaded CAPSTONE). It appears other than the need for Financial Aid, that completing a degree in say 5 months is relatively easy via all the tools available, but because I dont want to apply and pay TESU (money) I am holding off until June 30th. By which time I should have 90 or so credits ready to transfer with another 24 coming in July to early august. Then once those 114 credits are good to go, I can apply to Pitt's Post Bacc program starting in the spring.
You take 1 - 1.5 years completing the postbacc and apply in the middle spring for Entry into Pitt SOM Fall of 2019, Graduating June 2023, then 3 years IM residency (Board Certified in IM), 2 Years Fellowship in Nephrology and if all goes according to plan graduate fellowship in 2028 as a Board Certified Nephrologist. Just before I turn 50.......... So this is a 12 year plan... I am just on the leading edges of this journey. But I think I can prove I am capable of drinking from the fire hose if I complete 114 credits in just 4 months. Which helps prove I am academically capable for the Med School Entry.
Essentially TLDR:
Trying to graduate Med School 6 years from now so I can practice Nephrology 5 years after that for 20 years
