I SURE HOPE I'M TAKING THE RIGHT COURSE as well. Thanks.
Note: I'm very poor w/Excel, will that make this a difficult course for me? Also, I'm not going for a Business Degree, does it make sense to take this course? I figured based on all the posts, this course seemed to make sense. Thanks for any inputs.

Gary,
Yes! MGMT 311 is the correct course to fulfill the Operations Management requirement at Excelsior, and it is the course that has been discussed on this board for a while now. But that information isn't really significant to you if you aren't a business major.
I would advise you to double check this kind of thing BEFORE you register for something next time. It doesn't make sense to ask very important questions AFTER you have paid your money.
Also, it sounds like you rushed into this course, in general, without knowing what it is, why you would need to take it, or even whether it is the same course you intended it to be. Slow down, think things through, do your research, THEN act!
The course is quite fun, and not too difficult. You will need to be able to do the BASICS with Excel. But it isn't difficult to figure out the software. You basically just select the desired module from a list of available items, and then type in your given data, copy the results, and paste them into your answer sheet ready to be mailed to the professor.
For what it's worth,
