Environmental Science/Biology - floppydee - 04-08-2008
Has anyone earned or is currently working toward a science degree from any of these schools? So of you may remember me, I am taking a class through Oregon State now, and I attend my local community college here in NY. I have decided OSU is just not the best option for me right now. Seeing I have been at my CC for 4 years now, and I am in 25K in student loan debt (OUCH), I am leaning towards TESC or Empire Stae (here in NY) because it makes much more sense.
Anyway long story short anyone receive a Biology or Environmental science degree? Or working towards one? Is this even possible? I mean I see on TESC I can follow a track in ES, but I feel I am not gaining much experience not having to do labwork. I am completed BIO101, and Chem121, so maybe I won't need to. I am worried that if I try to get a job with a science degree from an ALL distance learning school then I may get looked down upon.
Is passing the Chemistry CLEP possible if you have no prior chemistry experience? I took it in College, but my teacher was easy, and I never learned anything.
