Excelsior BSLS Credit and Depth Requirement Questions
#1
Hi...

I'm sorting through all the info here on the Forum regarding how my already accumulated credits best fit in with Excelsior's BSLS degree (which I'm starting to think is the easiest road for me to take.)

These are the credits I have now...

1980s- 1991

Humanities ----

East West Humanities
Western Humanities
Elementary Spanish 1 & 2
Intermediate Spanish 1 & 2
Ethics
CLEP English Comp with Essay (from ancient times - at the time, I was in the last group at Regents College that was allowed to use this course for Essay credit)

Social Sciences ----

Western Civilizations 1 & 2
American Government
Cultural Anthropology
US History Part 1

Natural Science/Math ----

Elementary Algebra
Intermediate Algebra
Earth Science
Biology

Electives ----

Orientation to Education
Introduction to Computers (again, ancient!)
Typing (ancient - class given on an ACTUAL TYPEWRITER!!)

2011
CLEP
Introductory Psychology 75
Human Growth and Development 69

My questions are:

Does US History Part 1, Western Civ. Part 1, Western Civ. Part 2, make up the 9 lower level credits necessary to pursue a depth requirement in History?

I need 3 more credits in Natural Science/Math - What is the absolute easiest course to take for someone who has been away from these subjects for 20+ years and is extremely math/science phobic:ack:. I've seen notes regarding programs called ALEKS and Straighterline - is this a better option for my situation?

Are there any other upper level test options besides the DSST and ECE exams?

What are the best (fastest, least complicated) online schools for upper level classes. I'm specifically looking for Liberal Arts subjects like Art History, Literature, etc. I've checked out some of the online classes from Excelsior, but they look pretty darn intense!

Thanks so much!Smile
