Upper Level Humanities and/or Ethics - radconjohn - 05-17-2018
I need 3
ethics UL credits to satisfy one of my remaining Excelsior requirement. Which is broken down to 2 UL for ethics and 1 UL for humanities.My options are to take any one of the 3 Uexcel ethics tests to completely satisfy.
I have already taken, passed, The Institutes Ethics exam for 2 UL credits, so I would need 1 UL credit in humanities to satisfy.
So, are there any other UL Ethics exams out there that I missed for complete satisfaction? DSST's are not UL.
Are there any 1 or 3 UL credit Humanities exams or quick courses out there I can take?
Thank you!

There are absolutely DSST's that are UL, although none are ethics or Humanities courses. Not sure if that's what you meant.
Yes, the UExcel Ethics courses will work.
The only UL Humanities courses I know of on here:
Study.com's ENGLISH 305: Advanced Technical Writing
Coopersmith's: Medieval Hispano-Jewish Poetry, Jewish Art of Antiquity, The Music of the Orthodox Jew from Antiquity through the 20th Century
CSU-Global CBE's: all 12 of the Communications courses

How are the DSST exams completed? Do those have to be taken at a testing site? or are they proctored at home? Can you use reference materials or is it all off your memory? Just wondering as I know some people have noted that some of the tests are less stringent than others and the whole testing out thing is new to me and I'm just trying to learn what I can and share it with others who have teens and might want to look into using this alternate route starting in HS or instead of the more traditional route. TIA!

DSSTs are testing site only, all from memory (altho some allow a calculator IIRC).
