    Default FAST ONLINE BIOLOGY CLASS- Help

    Does anyone know of a fast and easy online biology class? Or any other fast and easy online class that meets my natural science requirement (only 2 credits left) at EC? I have been waiting for the P/F class to arrive and found out that it duplicates my college algebra class. I need something fast and online to get me done this week.

    All help is appreciated.

    ImustStudy,

    You could go for DSST Environment & Humanity. It's totally do-able within a week if you put your mind to it.

    It applies as Natural Science towards your Excelsior degree.

    Here is what I wrote about the exam shortly after I got home from taking it.

    Snazzlefrag's DSST Environment & Humanity Feedback.

    Let me know if you decide to go for it and I will send you my study notes (I got a 70 on it).

    You can do it,
    Snazzlefrag

    Default Study help

    you are awesome Snazz. Thanks for the help.

    Anyone know of a fast online class?? I am going to take this DSST but need a backup plan. EC says they will give me until Oct 26th to have everything in. If there was a fast/self paced online class, I would like to have it ready to go if necessary.

    Thanks .

    I ended up taking the Astronomy DSST. I passed with a 56 and received an "A" grade from Excelsior.

    It was entriely worth the 2 1/2 hours I spent studying sparknotes the night before. I used no other study and have never taken an Astronomy class.
