Hi all,
I have been very interested in taking Coopersmith UL courses as an alternative to the SDC. I'm a fabulous test taker and can do without essays, whenever possible. Coopersmith is more expensive at $150 an exam, but there are no essays. Some have short answers, but most quiz questions are multiple choice. I've read nothing, but good reviews and will be completing some of these courses soon. Per the reviews, from multiple people on the forum, all you need to utilize is the powerpoint they provide for you and no additional textbook is needed, unless you just want it.
I reached out to TESU to see how these would fit into my BALS degree plan and here's the info I received.
Thank you for the inquiry. All of the courses you listed will transfer into TESU. Seven of the courses transfer in as PSY- courses and two as Counseling (COU). The two COU- courses would be eligible to fulfill credits in your "Electives" section. The seven PSY courses would fulfill credits in your major section (AOS). See below for the specific transfer equivalencies.
PSY-325: Career Counseling >> TESU COU-473
PSY-305: Drugs, Society, and Human Behavior >> TESU PSY-338
PSY-306: Family Therapy >> TESU PSY-348
PSY-320: Substance Abuse Counseling >> TESU PSY-332
PSY-340: Sports and Exercise Psychology >> TESU PSY-334
PSY-302: Abnormal Psychology >> TESU PSY-350
PSY-310: Foundations of Stress Management >> TESU COU-423
PSY-304: History and Systems of Psychology >> TESU PSY-400
PSY-315: Social Psychology >> TESU PSY-237
If you will definitely take these (or some of them) then please reply and confirm which ones and then I'll add them on your TESU academic evaluation as "planned" courses.
Thank you!
