Also, if i take the free 2 cr insurance ethics course, how will i get the that 1 credit i need to meet my requirements?
Oh, yeah, just to elaborate. You can take the courses elsewhere such as $25/Saylor exam, a total of $75 for those 3 courses. BUT, the cornerstone, tuition discount, residency waiver fee discount, outweighs the Study.com membership by a larger margin, at least $1,000 just taking the courses at Study.com - You can take them at Straighterline, but for $99 membership +$59 each course, and again, you'll be missing out on the discounts... for cheap/easy/fast, Study.com is your ticket.
If you take the free Ethics course, your "Other courses" at the bottom will take the extra credits, as you're missing 1 credit for the general education section as well. So, it would be safe to say, your "Bio 1 Lab" and your "Astronomy" class will cover your missing credits just nicely. Again, all you need are those 3 Study.com courses which can all be done in 1 month and the capstone. If you want to play it safe, do the 3 Study.com/Ethics courses in 1 month, then focus on your capstone for 12 weeks.
Understood and will do. Thank you so much. With this info I should be able to finish by Feb 1 at the latest. I think classes start Oct 30, so i would have to wait to start the Capstone. I agree, Study.com does sound the best since it will give me the tuition discount and residency waiver fee discount.

Also, I just emailed my advisor to see if he could provide me with an academic eval for the BSPS and BSAST in Technical Studies.
