How does TESUs recent change affect things?

[dfrecore]

Some of the UExcels are exceedingly difficult, considering their subject matter. Others are relatively easy. Also, not everyone wants their grade to rely on a single test.

TECEP's and e-Pack's also rely on a single test; the only thing about TESU is those are Pass/Fail, while UExcel's are graded.

Can I ask one thing? Awhile back you posted that your daughter was doing a TEL biology course. How did that work out. I was looking at the TEL site and found the info below. 160 hours seems a lot of effort for some of these courses. Is that what she had to thru?

Each TEL course includes 135-160 contact hours. The bulk of that will be reading the material, watching the instructional videos, and taking the Check Your Knowledge Participation Quizzes. Expect to spend at least 20 hours on the larger mastery assignments and the remainder studying for and taking your midterm and final exams. You have a full calendar year from registration to complete the course. 

OMG, let's not go there! She is a FT college student anyway, so this is not out of the ordinary for her.  But she has put off doing this course for ages, and only has a couple months left...
