    I hope you can find some good advice here, but I'm concerned that your questions may be beyond the scope of this forum. That is, unless a guidance counselor from TESC happens to be online, or someone who has gone through the same classes and program. A phone call to a real person at TESC might be advisable. Best wishes in your endeavor.

    Thank you for that. I know there were a few people who used to be on here with a psych ba. Basically I just need advice on psychology electives and a few gen ed's as to which courses are a bit easier then others
