Saylor OPM-351 Business Statistics Question - sarahmac - 09-17-2022

Has anyone taken Saylor's Business Statistics that transfers to OPM-351 Business Statistics recently?

If so, I would really appreciate knowing what happens if you run an academic evaluation for BA Math.

I would not have thought it counted in the AOS until recently, when I discovered CSM Learn's BUS-210 Quantitative Skills Business counts as a lower-level elective in the AOS. Now I guess anything is possible Big Grin

I haven't heard about this one in a very long time - and my guess is that they won't bring it in as OPM-351. They used to be a little more generous with things like this, but that went away quite a while ago.

My guess is, they go with the ACE and NCCRS LL recommendation and give it a STA-201.

Thanks for the info - I guess Saylor haven't updated their equivalency page for TESU, it is still listed OPM-351.

Saylor has this as an UL offering and it's been evaluated by ACE as UL again, I think it will come through just fine as intended, the OPM-351 as members of the board transferred this in previously before it got downgraded and now it's back to UL until 11/30/2022.  My suggestion is to email TESU quickly as the course expires in roughly two months.  ACE: https://www.acenet.edu/National-Guide/Pages/Course.aspx?org=Saylor+Academy&cid=30af5c57-94c4-ea11-a812-000d3a378a3a&oid=68099b28-9016-e811-810f-5065f38bf0e1

Edit to add: Oh and it's $5 plus just 40 hours as per ACE site, I would email and get confirmation, then try to pass the practice exam by say 85-90%, then finally going for the credit exam for just $5 and if you successfully pass, it's 3 extra credits right there!

That's a different class.

Business Statistics is still lower-level: https://www.acenet.edu/National-Guide/Pages/Course.aspx?org=Saylor+Academy&cid=2daf5c57-94c4-ea11-a812-000d3a378a3a&oid=68099b28-9016-e811-810f-5065f38bf0e1

Oh snap, that is the wrong class, hahaha... a weird mistake on my side, I wonder why I was thinking of Operations Management when it's clearly Business Statistics...
