To Lab or not to Lab - BIO SDC - homeschoolmom1 - 07-17-2026

I was just browsing the SDC->TESU equivalency website and noticed that the course Biology 1 WITH Lab (which our son recently completed) now transfers as 4 LL credits in BIO-1010 and BIO-1999, but gets NO LAB credit at TESU.

What's up with that? Disappointing.

PS: Physics with lab and chemistry with lab still get lab credit, but Microbiology with lab is now "Microorganisms" (NO LAB) and Anatomy and Physiology with Lab is "Biology of Human Concerns" (NO LAB) when you transfer it to TESU.

I would confirm with TESU advising how those science courses transfer in before taking the course. SL has biology with a lab.
