Looking for some advice before applying to TESC/TESU

Can you give any more insight? x86 asm is one of several languages I know fairly well, at least up to the 586/Pentium ISA. What did you find particularly challenging about the course?



I'm taking both, or rather I should say, I took the first and am taking the final for the second on Saturday. The comm course was ludicrously easy. There's some memorization of nonsense stuff that you'll forget minutes after reading it. I highly recommend paying for the course with the ebook, as having it available to search through with ctrl-F during the exams is priceless. I was nervous about the youtube videos because the instructions seemed rather strict. Before taking them I was pacing around in my garage practicing.

I don't know if that helped or not, but I passed the course with a 93%, and my scores on the three youtube videos were 100, 97 and 97. I thought I was going to do much worse on those. If I caught myself saying "um" or any other filler more than once, I stopped the recording and started over. I certainly would have done worse if doing it live was a requirement.

How long did it take them to grade your videos? I have until October 10th to get everything postmarked from Straighterline to TESU so I can then apply for graduation. Hoping I make it. Just cleared Survey of Western History final, Microbio, World Rel, and Business finals all scheduled for next week. Just need to do two more speeches and schedule that final.

Did anybody actually have to meet with an advisor one final time before applying for graduation?
