They all come in as pass/fail, I need to send them through ACE for TESU to receive it

I would like to know which course or certification are you taking without exam?

Here are the classes I've completed/almost completed:
Forecasting Analytics
Interactive Data Visualization
Introduction to Network Analysis
Optimization - Linear Programming
Predictive Analytics 2 - Neural Nets and Regression in Python
Financial Risk Modeling
Python for Analytics

Currently taking the Predictive Analytics 1 and 3 courses and I begin Integer & Nonlinear Programming next week. Still need one more class for my AOS, but I'm not too worried about that for now.
BS in Data Science & Analytics and BA in Computer Science and Mathematics at TESU (June 2019 to June 2020)
In-progress:
MS in Cybersecurity at NYU (January 2021 to December 2022?)
MCIT in Information Security and Assurance at NAU (September 2020 to March 2021)

In your opinion how difficult are the courses? What's the brake down of scoring? What types of assignments are there for grading?

I started this journey in the summer of 2016.  I hoped to be done sooner, but I am still proud of the rate at which I have gotten my schooling done with respect to the many months of military training and deployments I have undergone.

I've gotten by with all these courses pretty fine, and I was taking 4 of them at the same time at one point. It's one assignment per week, a few of the classes also had a Final Project with the fourth assignment. 

The scoring varies, but typically each problem is given a number of points and they're used to calculate your grade overall (e.g. for the Network Analysis course, Assignment 4 was worth 40 points and the final was worth 80 points)

Edit: Also want to note that I use both Python and Excel on almost a daily basis, so if you don't know the basics, then I wouldn't recommend overloading the statistics.com courses because they are accelerated courses!

I'm pretty good with python at the moment.  Not an expert but pretty good. I'm looking at the two paths of python vs R.  Knowing that python would be easier for me, but I feel like R would be better for professional use.  Don't have to make that decision for a few months, but I'm working through the planning now.
