Here's The Question.... - RBOWMAN - 04-12-2006
Acknowledging the the fact that Iam not anywhere near a science person and have not been anywhere near a science course in over 30 years...what of the two science offerings of biology or natural science would you suggest taking. I only need six credits of this and then onto college math clep and I will be done. So Iam definitely looking for the big quick and easy path to graduation. ideas..opinions and help are gratefully solicited. Thank-you!

I think Natural Sciences was definitely easier than biology. I'd study InstantCert's biology stuff, as well as the science questions in the GED section, hit up Wikipedia or Google for anything that confuses you, and do Google searches for the other topics (astronomy, physics, etc.). You should be able to get at least a 50.
One thing I remember surprising me about Natural Sciences was that there were several incredibly easy questions. I can't think of a good example off the top of my head, but there were questions that my 6-year-old brother could probably get (not quite "where do babies come from," but almost). Of course, there were a lot of hard ones too, but I don't remember there being any "stupid-easy" questions on Biology.

To me, I would rather focus on just ONE area (Biology) rather than the other sciences areas (Bio, Chem, Physics, Geo, Astro) and get the 6 credits.
