TESU extra DSST

[LevelUP]

I would avoid taking TESU classes like the plague.  I think I would rather walk 100 miles than take a TESU course.  All they do is annoy you every single week for 3 months telling you to write things.  Multiply that by several courses + having to take the Capstone/Cornerstone together and that would drive me nuts.

What courses have you taken with them?

I've heard the capstone is difficult but what about others?

I know multiple people say the cornerstone is easy and that makes sense considering it is an introductory level course.

I believe mysonx3 took a number of them for law school grades and said they weren't that bad. (but I don't want to put words in his mouth, I could be wrong). I think depends on the person.

I'm comparing taking a course from CLEP/Sophia whatever that usually takes less than 20 hours to complete.  You are done in one week or less. 

Taking a TESU course it drags on and on, never-ending annoying tasks to do with lots of deadlines which is similar to a brick and mortar school course.  No thanks.

I would be interested if anyone tracked the hours it took them to do different TESU courses.  I heard they are bad and more of them you do the worse it is.

I see that does make sense. But I'm still curious which ones you did? or did you do any?

I believe OP wanted to do 16 credits TESU because with the Pell Grant and Flat Rate it would save them over a thousand dollars. And to them, having to do extra work for a few months is worth over a thousand dollar savings and saves the hassle of finding one more UL for the AOS.

As far as TESU course difficulty, I can't speak for that. The only course I did at TESU was the defunct TES-100 and that took less than hour to complete.

I didn't do any TESU courses so I'm making an assumption based on feedback from various college review sites.

Through this process, I learned that saving a few bucks isn't worth wasting a bunch of time. 

I'll track the time it takes for me to do the capstone/cornerstone which I plan to start June/July.  I hope I don't spend more time on them then doing all the credits for my entire degree, that would suck.
