TESC Heres to your health?

[lmech]

Can anyone tell me if Heres to your health would be counted for a social science credit at TESC? I looked through the handbook, but only says that it counts as "human services". Has anyone had this test accepted as a social science? Thanks in advance.

I was wondering the same thing. Does human services = applied professional credits at TESC? :confused:

I have seen some people post thier thoughts. Most of them believe that it would count under a social science, but I was trying to get confirmation from another actual TESC enrolled student that has had an evaluation. I just don't want any more "free electives" they are overflowing my eval

Cookderosa graduated from TESC with a BA is Social Sciences last year and posted her degree plan which included the Here's to your Health CLEP. That might help answer where that test fits in the TESC degree plan.

****OOPS! I just looked at the degree plan and did NOT see that CLEP listed after all. Sorry about that.****

Not a problem. Yeah, I looked at Jennifer's posting along w/many others. No luck yet. I will find out soon. Just took the exam 3 weeks ago. Paper and pencil test, so I won't get the grade for 4 to 6 weeks. I will keep checking on myedison, and will post what happens to my eval with the TESC "advisors":p

I still have not recieved the grades back yet on this one. Does anyone know if Heres to your health can be used as General Elective for the BA L.S. ? Thanks

I just came on here to post the exact question you asked. Anyone else find out about this.? I rather take this CLEP than drugs and alcohol.

Ask an advisor at TESC if you can place this into your plan as a SocSci. The TESC catalog lists this as an Applied, but it also lists DSST Fundamentals of Counseling as an Applied and I was able to get them to approve DSST Counseling as a Psych based on it's similarity to a particular Psych TECEP. It never hurts to ask. I suggest asking via the online Service Desk so that whatever answer you get will be available later. If they approve it, they'll place the test in your degree plan as a 'pending' item.

Great idea. Thanks you for the feedback. I think I'm going to give it a shot.
