For the NYS requirements you need to take so many units of the subjects. Most full unit courses are done over a year not a semester in NYS, a semester course would normally be a 1/2 credit course. Does this make sense? If your daughter has done only 1 semester of US she would need to do another semester of US to fullfill the 1 unit of US history that is required by the state no matter if she takes the CLEP or not. Now you could do a class on the Civil War or The Depression and have that for a semester and that would be the other 1/2 a unit you would need. US History, Economics and Government are the only required history courses along with 2 history electives (usually a world history or something like that). Economics and Government each need to be 1/2 a unit.Statistics: Posted by mschickie — Thu Oct 16, 2008 3:46 pm
