I'm still glad I have the option of doing Saylor's ENVS203: Environmental Ethics, Justice & World Views for $25. Going to cram for it and try my luck. Don't expect that cramming to go quick. I used that course as prep for the Environmental Ethics TECEP and it took forever to get through that pile of material. On the plus side, the Saylor final was much easier than the TECEP. Unfortunately, it was not ACE approved when I did it.

Thanks, it's a Saylor course so I don't expect it to go quick, but as I'm planning on applying for September graduation I'm going to do this as quick as I can. If I don't pass, I have the option of moving my SL Business Ethics to fulfill my Ethics requirement, and then I'll have to enroll in the Penn Foster International Business course (3 webinars + proctored exam). I want to save time and money, so I'll only enroll in the Penn Foster course as a last resort.

The DSST Ethics in America is pretty popular on this forum, maybe you want to try that instead? You could sign up and do it in a few days.

Thanks, it's a hassle for me to schedule a test and then travel to the testing center, but if it comes to it then I might do this.

I'm happy to post I took and passed Saylor's ENVS203: Environmental Ethics, Justice & World Views course today with a 96%. Rather than going through all the course materials, I went through the unit assessment quizzes multiple times today, and I also did the practice final and looked up anything I didn't understand.
As soon as I submitted my exam, I got an e-mail notification with a cool auto-generated certificate (name & certificate ID whited out):
I'm glad I chose Saylor, now I can get back to working on my remaining courses for September graduation.

Woo hoo! Awesome Job, I've not taken that course yet.
Good mini review and insight on your study techniques.
As a side note, great 3 credits for $25

Just to check, you did do the proctored final for credit, right? You can get that cert just for doing the non-proctored final.

Yes, I did the password protected proctored final too. I paid the extra $8 to ProctorU to take the final earlier than scheduled.
