Confused on Lower/Upper Level Dantes

[hunter2115]

Ok, I guess I'm not getting this. I am going for a BS in General Business with Excelsior. If I take the two upper level ECE exams for both Organizational Behavior and Ethics, that means they count double as upper level so I only need two more upper level exams. Now, to make the right amount of credits, I need two more tests in the business section to complete the required 45 Semester hours, but they don't need to be upper level.

Can I just pick any test for those two lower levels or do they need to be business related? If they need to be business related, which of the DSST tests are considered "business" lower level? For example, can I take Criminal Justice or Here's to your health?

Thanks!

I think you're confusing the ECE Ethics and Organizational Behavior credits. If you take these 2 upper level exams (or equivalent courses), you can use the credits as both upper level business electives towards the 12 upper level business electives required of the degree PLUS you will satisfy both the Ethics and Organizational Behavior requirements. These are the only 2 courses that I'm aware of that will accomplish both of these tasks in 1 shot. They don't count as "double" credits so to say, but it is like "killing 2 birds with one shot". The exams or courses must be upper level to do this however. For instance, the DSST Ethics and Organizational Behavior exams are lower level so while they would satisfy the Ethics and Org. Behavior requirements, they could obviously not be used as upper level business electives at the same time.
