I'd love to know what folks have taken and gotten accepted for the Pierpont A.A.S degree, specifically for Math/Science and the Comm requirement. I've seen somewhere that CSM learn math fills a math slot and thought I saw Sophia Introduction to College Mathematics would work, BUT now I can't find that information anywhere. ( for the Sophia course) It seems a match to their Fundamentals of College Math listed under requirements. Anyone?

This might be where you saw some of it

that also says "The Sophia course Introduction to College Mathematics does not count for a Pierpont degree. It is considered to be a 0-credit remedial-type course. "
a year ago a family member was able to use some other sophia math (college algebra, maybe the stats). and CSM was in there too.
TESU: BALS June 2021 (comm college, clep, sdc sophia coopersmith, SOS110, and capstone)

Human Biology (without lab) and Environmental Science are, IMO, pretty easy ways to fill the math/science requirements. Even if one doesn't like science, they're still pretty quick to complete.
In progress:
TESU - BA Computer Science; BSBA CIS; ASNSM Math & CS; ASBA
Completed:
Pierpont - AAS BOG
Sophia (so many), The Institutes (old), Study.com (5 courses)
ASU: Human Origins, Astronomy, Intro Health & Wellness, Western Civilization, Computer Appls & Info Technology, Intro Programming

That's right, it really depends if you're looking at getting Math credits to hit the spot or Science credits. If you like math, then select a couple of math courses to fill the spot, if you're into science, then the route Rachel83Az mentioned is what I would do and recommend as well...
