Acceleration - Science Education

Any of you guys accelerate through your degree for a secondary science education degree?

My degree plan has 41 classes. I've done 5 on sophia. Starting bio w/lab today on study.com and wondering what it will look like if I transfer in with 15 classes done already 😅.

Thanks!

Study.com or WGU for Science w lab courses

Hey all.

I'm waiting on a financial review before I start wgu so I've got like another 10 weeks before they officially accept that. In the meantime I'm doing classes online so I can transfer them in.

Has anyone taken a science w/lab at study.com and how was your experience?

I'm trying to see if it would be better for me to knock it out on study while waiting on wgu or if the extra lab fees from study.com aren't worth it.

Thank you!

👀 last grade and end of subscription

Hey guys, I'm waiting on my last grade. I don't think it'll be graded until tomorrow. Can I cancel and still get credit for that last grade since I'm done with all course work and don't have anymore courses? Or will I have to pay for a whole month of Sophia just for them to give me that grade?

Lmk!

Thanks!

Boo, waiting is the worst part.

What do y'all do when you're at a standstill waiting on grades? 🙃 I'm losing my mind.

Wgu Science Ed (Earth Science) While working as a para?

Will this work?

Here's my plan. Let me know if any of it sounds off and please answer some questions.

I am currently working as a para in a sped high school classroom in Colorado. I would like to get credit transfers through Sophia Learning and Study . Com to boost my rate of completion. I'm hoping to do it all over the summer time and be started on the rest of my coursework by early fall (hopefully before the school semester even starts). I have the utmost confidence in my ability to do the classes and proctored exams. However, I am and NEED to be working. Is it possible (if I can get my district to okay it) to do my clinicals at my current placement or does it need to be somewhere WGU places me and/or does it need to be in my field of study?

And then 😅 Is there a way to make sure my student teaching is in my district (they've already said they'll work with me to help get me placed if WGU will)? And have the terms changed in the last couple of years to allow paid student teaching if applicable.

How do you paras do it?

Anyways, let me know any of the hiccups. I would LOVE to be at the student teaching phase by jan of 2027.
