TESC for BSAST in Nuclear Engineering Technology

[Chebasaz]

So... Is that for Nuclear Engineering Technology or for History like he asked?

That's not a dig, I'm just honestly curious because I see quite a bit of History classes in there too. Are you minoring in History?

If that track "is" for History, why on God's green earth would you need calculus?!?

i am hoping thats nuclear engineering and not history.

if so im leaning towards a psych major.

[peacfulchaos2001]

Here is my evaluation. TESC is taking forever to update it so it is a little out of date, so I will do a quick "personal" update of the test that are missing. The bold courses have not been taken yet, and are just to show you were some of the test/classes will fall into. I hope this helps. If you have any questions feel free to let me know.

At one time I was comparing the two for that very major. I found that with TESC, I could have tested out of the entire degree, but it would have been more expensive to go through them. ( I don't live in NJ.) With Excelsior, I would have needed a Historiography class for sure (there is no exam for that one), and maybe one or two more. Its been a while since I researched this. I finally decided a liberal arts degree would suffice for my needs, saved the dough, and went with EC.

[JimiT20]

thank you very much

[larry7crys]

The degree I posted above was for Nuclear Engineering, not History but I am open to getting a second degree. I absolutely love history but I want to finish this degree first, since the majority of my credits came from my training. I took alot more exams then have been applied but overall, I'm happy.
