Almost ready for my degree...but things have changed.
#1
I've been working towards an AA. I'm now down to the last few tests - math (which I will be doing through ALEKS) and science. I might have to do Intro to Computers too (if I could take computers and it would count for science instead of biology or natural sciences....YES. JUST YES. PLEASE.)

However, TESC has changed since the last time I was planning out my degree. So I was hoping maybe I could get some help working out the new requirements?
I have tried to contact TESC before via email but they won't tell me anything unless I'm enrolled which I don't want to do just yet (math is going to take me a while).

A. Intellectual and Practical Skills
(15)


English Composition I (ENC-101) (3)
English Composition II (ENC-102) (3) - I don't know what test(s) would cover these two. I have not taken any Comp yet.)
College-Level Math Course (3) (going to do ALEKS, though I don't know what course yet)
Electives in Intellectual and Practical Skills (6)
(Have no idea what would fit here. I've taken sociology, american lit, world religions, astronomy, psychology, western civ 1&2, us history 1&2, marketing, educational psychology, human growth and development.)

B. Human Cultures and the Physical and Natural World (18)


Humanities (3) (pretty sure this is covered, just not sure which test would do it)
Social Sciences (3) (sociology?)
Natural Sciences (3) (Astronomy? computers?)
Humanities, Social Sciences, Natural Sciences or Interdisciplinary Electives (9)
(???)

C. Personal and Social Responsibility (9)


Diversity/Global Literacy (3)
Responsible Ethical Leadership (3)
Ethics or Diversity Elective (3)
(No idea to any of these)

II. General Education Electives (18)
(Whatever fits)


I feel like I have to start all over again in figuring everything out. I thought I was so close to being done and now it feels like I'm not. Sad

You might want to take a look at this list to get an idea of which courses count for what in the core requirements:

If you search the forum TESC's new requirements have been discussed many times on here.

ALEKS is on hold with ACE for now, so CLEP College Math would be a better choice if you are in a hurry. Also, your Astronomy DSST seems to count for a natural science according to the new General Ed course listings. Since you only need 3 natural science hours now, you should be good to go for that requirement. What other classes have you completed?
BA, MA, EdS, MMT, etc.
83 hours of ACE-worthy credits
