UL options for Management Information Systems at TESU

[allvia]

What are the current UL options for Management Information Systems at TESU?  I would like to add it to my AOS management UL credits for my BSBA-GM

MIS DSST according to TESU's site:

There are a lot of options! Davar, DSST, Saylor, Study.com are the cheapest, and then there are the more expensive ACE options...

[Ideas]

Saylor is only $25, but do not take their course that's called Management Info Systems. That comes in funny at TESU. Saylor's Strategic Information Technology comes in as Management Info Systems at TESU.

Otherwise Davar is cheaper than Study.com or DSST. You can do their business class membership and get a 2nd exam, it's pretty cheap although they don't mention the $15 or $25 proctoring fee very prominently.

It really depends on whether you want to take an actual course, or an exam.

Davar & DSST are exam-only options. You study any materials you want, then take a single test for your entire score.

Saylor has a free course plus the exam (only the final exam counts towards your score, so it's close to the exam-only option).

Study.com and Ed4Credit are courses.
- Study.com's course has a bunch of quizzes that cumulatively count for 33% of the grade, then 3 assignments that count for another 33% of the grade, and a final that counts for 33% of the grade. You need to score 70% overall in the course to pass.
- Ed4Credit's course has 14 chapter exams and a final exam that are each 1/15th of the grade. For the chapter tests, they are open-book and you're allowed to take each one 3 times and they will count your highest score. The final is closed-book and can only be taken once. You need to score 50% on the final, and a 70% overall in the course to pass.

Now, you just get to decide which one you're going to take!
