RA Credit Classes for Admission Into TESU

[AmenSandhu]

Thank you Rachel! I have a question, would you recommend taking the ASU Earned Admission courses first to get back Into the grove studying and etc..? Also, could I complete all my RA credits from ASU EA rather than TEL? Because I have no Idea how hard the TEL learning courses are, so I was thinking If I could take some easy classes to fill out my RA credits from ASU EA and then take all my Gen Ed from Sophia because I believe they would be easier than let's say, TEL Learning courses.. 

What do you think?

"Getting back into the groove" and "getting used to online learning" are exactly why I signed up for ASU EA classes initially. I didn't think I needed them (turns out I did, because of TESU's new policy!) but I wanted to see what "real" college was like, compared to Sophia. It worked well for that. Only having to pay $25 to upgrade the course to for-credit, unless and until you pass the ASU class, is a great feature of this program, too! This is especially good if you have anxieties about schooling.

Also, you have a few months to decide if you want to pay the $400 to transcript the class. If, after taking a few ASU classes, you decide that you're confident enough to try tackling TEL Learning courses, you could do this and leave the ASU classes in your dashboard while you did TEL Learning.

If you have the money and want to take all 8 RA classes at ASU, I'd say go for it. Yes, TEL costs less but sometimes you have to pay a bit more for something that better suits your needs. When looking for other ASU classes to take, I have a few suggestions: do NOT take chemistry unless you have a solid chemistry background AND it is the only class you're taking. Chemistry is, unfortunately, 5x the work of the average ASU EA class. Any of the classes in my signature would be good (depending on your interests) but do be warned that Astronomy is especially math-heavy. If you hate math or you aren't good with math, you might want to do something else. I believe it's still possible to get at least a C even if you do badly on the math sections, though.

Thank you Rachel! I cannot begin to thank you for how much you’ve done for me, I really really appreciate It. So, avoid Chemistry and Astronomy.. Got It. I am horrendous at math, you have no Idea. I think this Is just what I’m going to do, take a few ASU EA classes to get back Into the rhythm of studying. Also because I really like the “pay after you pass” system. I think I can afford It because as you said, “find something that better suits your needs”, and this Is perfect.

This Is what I’ll be doing for starters:
1. Take ASU EA classes to get back Into studying
2. See If I want to tackle some TEL courses, If not, complete all my RA with ASU EA
3. Finish every class on Sophia after RA credits are done.
4. Get evaluation from TESU and start working on UL AOS classes with SDC.

I think this Is a good plan, but I just want to get the “a ok” from you, Rachel.
