Probably a dumb question - Notgodot - 10-01-2016
Just to make absolutely sure, though, I'll ask the wise minds of the forum
For TESU BALS, in the General Education requirements for Understanding the Physical & Natural World, Study.com's Physical Geology will definitely transfer in, giving me 3 credits. I'm overseas, and prefer not to take a lab. Instead I'd like to take Study.com's Earth Science, as I actually know something about it and enjoy the subject. Taking the two together seems to make sense.
I know it will transfer in as EAS-101, General Earth Science. Does anyone know off-hand if that'll also get put into the Physical & Natural World requirement?
Thanks in advance for your replies!

That's one of the several sciences I took at Straighterline. It will go through as the physical & natural science requirement.
BTW, where in southeast asia are you? I've been there three times and just love it.... yearly, I usually travel in north asia though.

In my notes, Study.com's Physical Geology & Earth Science duplicate each other, even though they have different course numbers. I can't remember where I got that info, so it could be wrong, or could have changed at this point; I would suggest that you double-check before you take them.

Thanks! I'll follow up with TESU.

I sort of shuttle between Vietnam and Singapore. I'm actually quite surprised neither has a a CLEP center, especially Singapore... but their education system hews closely to the British model.

Some good news from TESU:
Quote:If you intend to take both EAS-101, General Earth Science and GEO-151, Physical Geology, to complete the Natural World requirement, you may. These courses do not duplicate one another.
