What order to take courses?

[rachel83az]

These should be separated into two groups: courses with multiple Touchstones and courses with 2 or fewer Touchstones.

Multiple Touchstones:
English Comp I - 5 Touchstones
Workplace Writing - 6 Touchstones
Public Speaking - 4 Touchstones
Business Communication - 4 Touchstones

2 or fewer Touchstones:
Intro to Sociology - 2 Touchstones
US History II - 0 Touchstones
Critical Thinking - 1 Touchstone
Macroeconomics - 0 Touchstones
Intro to Business - 0 Touchstones
Principles of Management - 1 Touchstone
Business Law - 1 Touchstone
Principles of Finance - 0 Touchstones

Always have one multiple Touchstone course open and one 2 or fewer Touchstone course open. Start with English Comp I and, IMO, go in the order of the list above. The 2 or fewer Touchstone courses can be taken in pretty much any order.

If you have 100% finished a course and you're just waiting for a Touchstone grade, you can contact support to ask for a 3rd course to be opened for you.

Depending on grading times, you'll probably finish the 2nd list before you finish the shorter list with multiple Touchstones.
