Straighterline question
#1
So I've heard quite a few people say they went with Straighterline to study independently and then transfer their credits (I'm planning TESC). I'm thinking that doing Straighterline might work for me since you have to pay per month and that would be motivation for me to get the courses done (as opposed to doing everything completely on my own, completely at my own pace with nothing tangible to motivate me, like money slipping out of my pocket for every month spent dawdling).

My question is, in people's experience, how quickly were they able to finish Straighterline courses?

Theoretically, with the way my work schedule is, if I crack down and stay disciplined, I could have at least 16 hours per week to work on college, and that doesn't include evenings or getting up early.

There are people here who have completed a course in a weekend. I had one son drag out a class for months. It's just a matter of how fast you work through it and the specific course requirements.

I took several courses via Straighterline this summer and I would say I averaged 2-3 weeks per course. That was with me reading the material. I personally liked Straighterline. Good luck to you!
