Is anybody aware of one credit Natural science course that can be transferred to EC? I am looking for relatively less expensive and easy natural science course.

thanks
BS.

First Aid def not natural science, it will be free elective.
here are a few others to consider:

DSST Astronomy = 3

Thank you all. Actually, I have 8 out 9 credits required for Natural science requirement. So I was thinking that I could find one or two credits course to meetl the missing credit. But it looks like there is no one or 2 credits course available. So I will have to take the easiest course available.

thanks

What about the free Intro to Physics two-credit course on Udacity, then put it on your ACE transcript?
BA, MA, EdS, MMT, etc.
83 hours of ACE-worthy credits

Well, I already took that course. Unfortunately, there is no proctored exam available for this course. Udacity is in the process of setting up proctored exam to make this course available for ACE credits.

Thanks
BS.

kctcs allows on demand courses to be taken as modules anywhere from .75 to 1.0 credit each. They do make you jump through a few hoops to get started though.

okay, I'm outta the loop on this one! What's KCTCS and what hoops are needed to jump through them. I need my natural sciences and I'm looking for something other than the CLEP if I can help it?

Does EC accept the Environment and Humanity DSST? It's worth 3 credits, but it's probably the easiest science test.

KCTCS is Kentucky's community college systm. They offer several self paced courses online. Most are publisher test bank multiple choice format. They require transcripts and a letter of good standing from current college. Price is ok, but not cheap. I finished a couple of computer classes in less than a week. Quality is hit and miss. I am currently in Applied Physics which will take at least a month to finish because 16 formal lab reports. Major PITA.
