Same thing on these two. I've read the specific feedback, but is there a best order to take them in?
Thanks!

Also, someday maybe a MS in Forensic Psychology, just for fun. Oh, and a BS in Animal Behavior. And, maybe when I'm 85 a PhD in something fun.

I strongly expect the best order is Psychology of Adulthood and Aging, then Foundations of Gerontology. The outline and texts for Foundations of Gerontology includes shared content areas with PAA, plus substantial content in other social aspects of aging not covered in PAA. Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid and other public programs; housing for older Americans, voting behavior, etc. You'd naturally study PAA, then "zoom out."

I agree, especially if you have some psych courses in your background. PAA then FOG. Good luck, these are both very doable.
