    I have learned sooooo much from you all about DL that I'm going to take the plunge!
    I’m planning to enroll into Thomas Edison in the coming week.
    I have at least 12 credits to transfer from local community college. I’m still working on my AA in Liberal Arts. Based on TESC’s outline, I only need 48 more credits to finally finish.
    I took their outline and came up with a plan. I would love any input on it. Also, which CLEP’s should I take together?

    Humanities ( 12 )
    CLEP Humanities ( 6 )
    CLEP American Lit. ( 6 )

    Social Science ( 9 )
    CLEP US History II ( 3 )
    CLEP Social Science & History ( 6 )

    Natural Science & Math ( 9 )
    CLEP College Algebra ( 3 ) or CLEP College Math ( 6 )
    CLEP Natural Science ( 6 )

    Gen Ed Electives ( 9 )
    CLEP American Gov’t ( 3 )
    CLEP Human Growth ( 3 )
    DANTES Intro to Word Religions ( 3 )

    Free Electives ( 9 )
    CLEP Into to Psych. ( 3 )
    CLEP Into to Sociology ( 3 )
    CLEP Into to Ed. Psych. ( 3 )


    Thanks!

    I have taken the following from your list-
    CLEP Humanities ( 6 )
    CLEP American Lit. ( 6 )
    CLEP Social Science & History ( 6 )
    CLEP College Math ( 6 )
    CLEP Into to Sociology ( 3 )

    you should check with TESC before taking these exams. I only got partial credit for my Social Science and History exam because I also took History I.
    That is the only hole I see in your plan. I would take the Social Science at the same time (if they will be accepted) and the Into to Ed. Psych and Into to Psych. I heard can be taken by studying the same material.

    Good luck.

    Thanks Randell!

    Yea, I'm going to make sure that TESC accepts my plan before I execute. Don't want to waste my time , energy and money if they woun't ake the credit!

    They allowed the College Math credits? My local CC that it's not considered a "college level" math. That's why I put the Algebra exam in the plan.

    COSC accepted the General math CLEP for 6 credits. I can not speak for TESC
     
  5. TESC accepts the CLEP College Math general exam for 6sh of math credit, fulfilling the math requirement for AA / BA / BSHuS. It does NOT fulfill the pre-calculus math requirement for the BSBA, though.

    Word to the Wise: Know basic stats for this exam, and you should land well within the "pass" range.
