How was business ethics? I plan on taking the course in December?

Hello:

The course was OK. Is interesting Some things you already know, just logical. Others are new (for me).

It turns out a little long, but its easy if you do it through Study.com.

I hope this is helpful.

Hello Felix,

What platform did you take the course on? How did you feel about it?

Permalink | Show parent

Hi everyone! This is very exciting! I'm also starting with American Government. I'm going for the Bachelors of Science in Applied Science and Technology. Anybody else from Tech. Ops.?

Hi Jorge

I'm not in Tech Ops, but am the recruiter, so an honorary Tech Ops CM :)

I actually just graduated in December with my Bachelor's in Business Management having taken 60 credits on all 3 platforms and TESU. Are you on study.com. I really liked American Government!

Let me know if you have any questions. Good luck!

I am going for the same degree, Jorge. American Government was a great survey course on Study.com. Very easy to navigate and learn. I am now in Chemistry 1 with Lab on Straighterline and it is difficult, but I will persevere! Only 13 credits left!

Hey I'm taking American Government also on Study.com. Actually pleased with how swiftly I've been able to move through it.

Hi Remington,

I was wondering how you did with your American Government course? How was the final? Are you still happy with study.com vs. straighterline?

Hello Everyone!

Glad to be part of this amazing opportunity! Norma I am also taking American Government.

Great Hector, welcome. I recommend Study.com, it quick, fun and has video presentation.

Hi everyone. Yes, this is a very exciting program to be a part of. I took American Government on another platform during the Beta phase and I enjoyed the course because I gained a lot of additional information about our government system. I took business ethics on straighterline.com and it was fun.

So I wish everyone nothing but the best. I will be waiting for a graduation ticket from one of you this year!! :)

Hi! I'm taking Political Science 102: American Government on study.com too.

Hello Amy,

Good choice, you will love Study.com, it is the best platform.

Permalink | Show parent

Hi Amy, I just finished it and I actually really enjoyed it, I really like the format!

I started taking it on straighterline but did not like that website. I then took it on study.com. I really liked it and scored over 90% even though grades aren't used for degree purposes.

Permalink | Show parent

Hi, I'm confuse, you said the grades aren't used for degrees purposes? Do we get credits towards our degree for any of these courses ? Because I did pass business ethics and do not see the credit.

Permalink | Show parent

Hello all! Grace, great question. All credits Scholars earn through the program are transferable as college credit to TESU, but any letter grade or percentage you earn above passing isn't relevant for the transfer.

As long as you pass, TESU will transfer the class as "CR" for Credit. So if you get a 70% in the class or a 99% in the class, the transfer will appear "CR." I hope this helps!

Hello everyone,

I'm starting with Environmental Science.Completing my B.S. Degree in Liberal Arts.

Hey Cindy,

i just fished this course on the Sophia.com network it was a fun learning experience and I was able to learn and comprehend the material. I am also on the same degree as you are. What I like about Sophia.com is that they set you up for success. Your final consist of twenty five questions from your previous milestones that you got correct so you will be familiar with ur final questions. I previously was on the study.com site but I found it difficult for me as I am a bad test taker and they pull your final from 100 questions so even thought you take the practice test over and over the questions constantly change. I have seen many other people like the study.com platform so it depends on your style of test taking. Good luck see you at the top! 👍🏽

Hi Cindy or anyone that can help,

I just completed Environmental Science course BS in Liberal Arts. Is there a practice test to take or just the quizzes after each chapter. I want to make sure I don't miss anything, as this is my first course :-)

Thanks Christine

Hi Christine,

I completed the Environmental Science course last year. There is a practice final exam for each course that you can take to prepare for the proctored final exam. This is what I usually use to prepare for the proctored test. I would do the practice final a few times until I feel comfortable enough to take the proctored exam.

To locate the practice final exam, click on the course within your Study.com student dashboard then click on the tab that says "Exams" in the upper right corner. This tab will take you to a page that has all the chapter practice exams as well as the overall practice final exam for the course.

Most times I don't bother with the chapter exams, I just go straight to the practice final exam run it a few times then I'm good. However, it's generally recommended that you do all the practice exams (including chapter and final). Do whatever you are more comfortable with I guess.

I hope this was of some help. Let me me know if you have any other questions.

Kind regards,

Ash
