Every course I took with straighterline I finished within 1-2 days. It takes about 12 hours to get through all the tests and breaks (because if you don't take a break between tests your brain will melt), but there's no reason you should take a month for a class.

UNLESS, of course, you have no prior experience with the subject. THEN you should commit to learning about it, and not being a dillweed and looking up test answers online.

Which straighterlines did you finish in 1-2 days? can I get a full list maybe from easiest to hardest?

I wasnt planning on doing these until July, but if they are as quick as everyone is saying I'll go ahead and knock out two Science SL's with Labs while im currently taking 2 8-week courses at AMU.

I just finished the lab about a week ago check out my other post. Its not hard. I did it in about 7 days because of one of the experiments. Pretty fun though.

I've been thinking about taking this one in a few months. I want to finish some more business course first but I'd like to take Biology too. I was never the science wiz in high school or college so even though I don't really need this course I might want to knock it out just because. Wink

I would say start with US History I and western civ. They have the least amount of tests and dont take long to do. Intro Biology wasnt bad either. About 15 tests and you can find everything in the book. Just look for the e-textbooks on chegg.com. And E-textbooks arent cheating. As for hardest, I would say Econ 1 which has 20+tests. Econ2 isn't bad if you know anything about how government policy, politics, and stuff like that which again has 20+tests. Still not a bad idea. Hope this answers your question.

Rugbyman,
Why do you think the e-textbooks work better? Not familiar with them at all. Thanks for all your input.

E-textbooks are easier to navigate, instead of flipping though pages. You can also CTRL-F to find a certain section which helps get you closer to the answer. But... if you like or are use to paperback them dont change a thing. This is just a preference.
