WGU Natural Science Lab - CSstudent0725 - 04-26-2020
Hey,
I was thinking of doing Biology lab from Study.com to meet this requirement, but I looked at the course syllabus and it seems to be time consuming, plus there is an extra lab fee. Has anyone done NS Lab directly through WGU? I read it can be done pretty quickly, but I'm not sure if that has changed at all.
Thanks

Last I checked, the Bio lab from SDC is NCCRS, not ACE. WGU won't take it.

I agree. You're wasting time and money. The WGU courses are VERY straight forward. Just follow directions and you'll be fine and you'll be done with it.

Do you have a link to the Natural Science Lab at WGU? I tried a search on their site and it rendered 529 results.... can you help me narrow it down? My son may be interested in this.
Thanks!
Julie

That was me. I agree, just do it at WGU. I did the experiment and wrote it up in a weekend.
