For polisci, the UMPI course is apparently one paper that's about 3 pages long (IIRC). Or you can do American Government from InstantCert.

Ohhhh hah then it's probably fastest/easiest to just do the UMPI one thanks!
RE: A few questions to current/past students - PointAndClick - 06-27-2022
I also just remembered I already took Biology at Sophia so I'm missing one credit for GEC (the lab). Could I take just the lab part somewhere or is there a 1 credit course I could take to fill that?
RE: A few questions to current/past students - rachel83az - 06-27-2022
The lab and the course have to come from the same provider.

Study.com Biology Lab is the favorite within the forum. It can be completed within a month along with an additional course if you put the effort into both courses. Study.com payment of $199; includes two exams so a value to max out your time there. Keep in mind there is an additional $69 charge for your virtual lab.

Yeah but as I said earlier I already did Biology and don't want to redo the same course. Is a science course with lab actually required for their GEC or is it used in the wiki because that one credit for the lab gets 40 credits exactly?

You MUST have a science class with a lab. Your other choice at SDC is Chemistry 111L. Or you can do one of ASU's lab sciences.

Bummer
If SDC charges extra for the lab would ASU be cheaper to do?(06-28-2022, 12:57 AM)rachel83az Wrote: You MUST have a science class with a lab. Your other choice at SDC is Chemistry 111L. Or you can do one of ASU's lab sciences.

Even if you're only doing the one SDC science course, SDC is cheaper than ASU as long as you are able to finish within 30 days. Most students are able to do this. If you struggle with science, ASU may be slightly cheaper.

If SDC is cheaper I will definitely go with that, then I guess the Biology course from Sophia will be worthless or do you think it could apply to the free electives section still?
