I'm going to take the Pathophysiology exam, so I this is good news for me. Anyone interested in the TESC Nat Sci & Math Area of Study should be looking into this exam since it is good for 3 UL credits.

It appears the World Population ECE which is 3 UL credits in the 3 hour exam format, is only counted as 3 Lower Level credits in the 2 hour $95 version. Just a heads up to anyone looking for UL credit through the new shorter ECE program.

World Population is no longer UL as per my advisor:
"We have changed the World Population from a 3 hour to a 2 hour exam and the credits have been changed to lower level as recommended by ACE. We are no longer taking registrations for the 3 hour upper level World Population exam."
Not good news !

any idea if this would still be evaluated at TESC UL like it previously was? (SOC318)

The ACE listings for many ECE's aren't current and listing for World Populations in particular is out-of-date. According to ACE, World Populations was evaluated through 10/7/2010.
That makes me think TESC is using something other than ACE for evaluating ECE's. Perhaps it's a direct recommendation for credit from Excelsior?

I would like to test TESC Psychology of Woman. It would be a
good addition to my other psych tests. I contacted Excelsior
And asked if they would accept the exam as credit. They said
only if is ACE accredited. It isn't to my knowledge. That
would mean they wouldn't offer me credit. Has anyone had
luck in transfer TESC exams to Excelsior.

I email TESC about the change from upper to lower level on the World Pop ECE. I sent a link to the EC Bulletin that noted the change to lower. The reply I got was that it would still be transcribed as upper level at TESC.

Thank you for the confirmation!
