TESC BA Mathematics completed coursework
#12
scubasteve212 Wrote:Hi all,
Long time lurker, first time poster. This forum really helped me out in the last year and I wanted to give a little back. I just finished my Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics at TESC and wanted to share my combination of courses that led to success. I started in September of last year with my first ALEKS courses, switched over to Straighterline and Texas Engineering Extension Service shortly afterwards, and then enrolled in TESC for the December 2014 term. I managed to punch out a big portion of the required coursework with high school Advanced Placement courses, ALEKS, SL, and TEEX. I finished my final course (Liberal Arts Capstone) at the end of August and am scheduled to graduate December of this year.
Here is the academic evaluation that led to my degree. I hope that it will help future mathematics students help decide for or against TESC. I wrote the equivalent credit course source that transferred to TESC at the end of each line.

When you did your calc, what study tools did you use if any?
I'm trying to prep for calc for the spring semester. Using MIT opencoarseware to get a head start.

Very impressed at what you accomplished.
DSST - Technical Writing - 441
CLEP - College Composition - 69

Can only test out of 2 more classes for my degree:
CLEP - Analyzing and Interpreting Literature - TBD
