Quickest and easiest UL courses for TESU BALS - Seagull - 01-01-2021

With the March deadline to send in alternative credits, what are 5 of the easiest UL courses?
Whether is the no proctoring aspect, fewer essays, low cost or simply easiest.

I read TEEX death investigations and SDC computer database 303 are easy (does the latter transfer to a BALS UL AOS?)
What about the TESU TECEP abnormal psy?
Or any UEXCEL ones.
Just need some input to map out and complete my degree.

Quickest and easiest UL courses for TESU BALS - ROYISAGIRL - 01-02-2021

Easiest is dependent on the person. I found the Bioethics Uexcel easy, but apparently it's one of the hardest. I'm not sure if you looked at this

It'll give you some of the Upper level courses people have taken. Most are proctored except TEEX. I found all of those to be easy.

Thanks, yes I saw the link but it seems limited and it doesn't account for the limited ACE credits rule that TESU springed on us this year.

Bioethics sounds interesting. Were there any essays to write? Is it proctored through Proctor U?

It's proctoted through Pearson. I took it long before COVID, so I took it at a testing center. It did fulfill an upper level AOS spot for my Liberal Studies degree. There's no essay just a multiple choice exam. I took it cold an got a b, however I had taken an ethics course afew days before, so there was some overlap.

Is Uexcel allowing online testing now?

Thanks, so those UL ones are all for BALS AoS except that one? And also price is the same?

So if I didn't put in a price, then they're the normal $110.

Just an FYI, you can find Business Ethics & Org Behavior at Study.com, so this isn't your only option for those ones. UExcel is supposed to be fairly hard (harder than CLEP, DSST or even TECEP) so it wouldn't be my first choice if you weren't a very strong test-taker. And it costs additional for practice tests (can't remember how much though).

Don't count on TEEX with the new ACE system problem who knows if you can get on a transcript in time.
