    I'm now one exam away from getting my degree from Excelsior and they have given me three of their own exams to choose from sense I have taken every thing else required.
    My choices below are:
    1.psychology of adulthood and aging
    2. Foundations of gerontology
    3. organizational behavior ( this one I don't understand why they choose sense it's listed under business)

    So, my question to all of you is which one would not be difficult? I don't want to fail my last exam:(

    Perhaps you could consider an english composition course if available. The correct word is since not 'sense'. Just thought I would point that out.

    Which of the topics interests you the most? (I think the fact that Excelsior offers you a nice set of options is quite wonderful.)

    AlthoughI have an interst in gerontology, I'd personally opt for Organizational Psych.

    I once enrolled in a BYU Ind study course on the subject. I didn't complete it, but the textbook was memorably worthwhile.

    It was "Management of Organizational Behavior: Leading Human Resources" by Paul Hersry, Kenneth H. Blanchard, and Dewey E. Johnson. Splendid and fascinating--and to judge by the above pass rates, probably easier too.

    4 and a half star reviews (out of 5)

    Thanks I’ll look into the Organizational Behavior exam, SINCE the pass rate is so high:)

    Avia93--

    Is it for the BA? Are you majoring in Psych?--or something else?

    Don't do that! Everyone knows what is meant here. You don't impress any of us.

    Sorry, it was just a joke. But I guess it wasn't very funny. I apologize...:(

    Unless you have a really good background, stay away from the psychology of adulthood and aging.....

    I, too, would go for the organizational behavior course --- much more like what you will see in the everyday world.

    Gosh, I hope the grammar and spelling police are not reading.

    The correct word is 'English' and not 'english.' Languages are always capitalized.

    I deserve every bit of this.... I made a mistake by addressing the post in the manner I did. I was trying to be funny. Thanks for bringing this to my attention. It certainly won't happen again.

    You won't get away with it that easy, Chsheaf! As punishment, we will be screening for spelling, grammar, and punctuation until your 100th post. :D :D JK

    Mais on utilise un f minuscule en "français".
    Pero uno utiliza un e minúsculo en "español".
    Mas usa-se um p minúsculo no "português".
    Ma uno i minusculo è usato in "italiano".
    Und auf Deutsch, schreibt man jedes Gegenstandswort groß.

    Please, the constitution prohibits cruel and unusual punishment. This is too much even for an old man like me. My 100th birthday eh, only eight more years.......
