Coopersmith PSY-305: Drugs Society and Human Beh (TESU PSY-338)
Coopersmith PSY-302: Abnormal Psych (TESU PSY-350)
Coopersmith PSY-306: Family Therapy (TESU PSY-348)
Coopersmith PSY-320 Substance Abuse Counseling (TESU PSY-320)
Anyone have any experience or knowledge of any of these in terms of how long to expect to study? Could one complete them as quickly as, say, a typical Sophia or SDC course? Do any have anything other than the one exam?
Two other unrelated questions:
- Thoughts on a fast, easy, cheap 1 credit class (having exhausted the Sophia ones)? Maybe TEEX something?
- Anyone know what the "COU" prefix is for courses at TESU? They said that Coopersmith PSY-307 comes in as COU-327, but I could find no reference to a course by that number in TESU's catalog.
Thanks very much!
I took all of those Coopersmith courses and enjoyed them. For some I purchased the textbook, but for most I just hit the PPT decks hard. They're concise and targeted.
Rachel's assessment is right on the money. For what it's worth, PSY-305 was 30 multiple choice and "8 short answer" questions, and PSY-306 was 40/8. Off the top of my head, I can't recall the breakdown for the other two, but take note that PSY-312 Theraputic Interviewing is 100/0, and PSY-310 Stress Managment is 50/0.
