My son took this class and did pretty well. He has never done programming before. It took him about one week to complete it. He was stressed with the Proctored exam and still did well.

working on this now. Seems pretty straight forward. Hopefully, I can put some real damage in the course today. I will post back with my results when I am closer to being finished with the course. I am hoping by Friday I will be done.

Good luck! I love how the assignments are graded super fast.

Does that mean that it sucks or what? Now that PF programming isn't ACE approved, still looking for a good avenue to fulfill the Programming course.

I finished the class a log time ago, but still might be able to help. Are you stuck on something? if I remember right, there seemed to be some errors in a few of the assignments which made them difficult to complete. I still have a couple saved if you wish to look at the code.

Hmm, PF is expensive if you're looking for simple 3 credits in computers. I would go with them as a last resort.
I would recommend this for novice programmers, actually - This is the "go to course" for non programmers.
I'm not sure if Davar, Saylor, or Study.com has anything in programming... Saylor may have, but it's going to be harder.
