Merry Christmas!
Been a while since I checked in here, so here I am, holding myself accountable
I can't remember exactly where I was last time I updated, but I'm standing at 45 credits right now, thanks mostly to Shmoop, where I am doing a speedrun through the world of literature. all that reading is finally paying off. I've passed five courses so far; I'm starting with the ones most likely to grant upper level credit at TESU. Contemporary lit has some serious issues with the unit tests, so I've decided to drop it, and Women's Lit has some sort of programming bug that wiped out all my progress at the end of Unit 4. I've put a ticket in; we'll see what happens. If it can't be resolved, I might just take the tests again, or say nah and move on. I've passed five courses in six days, and... I'm tired, boss. But money is tight, so I need to wring as much out of my month's subscription as I can. I wasted almost a week on the Contemporary Lit course. C'est la vie.
Moving over to Study.com, I'm supposed to be able to take the next test on December 27th. But when I visited the site today, it now says I have 4 exams I can take this month. Glitch? Christmas present? I think I'll try to take my Earth Science and Geology exams tomorrow, and see what happens.
Saylor: I did not cover myself in glory with the Western Political Thought exam. I relied too much on the practice exams, and wasn't prepared for a test where 100% of the questions were different. 58% and a cautionary tale, I suppose. I'll try again next month.
Finally, TESU still hasn't evaluated my JST (military) transcript. With the holidays, I doubt I'll find out until after January 3rd at the earliest. I'm hoping for 24-27 credits, but not counting on any, since I myself don't have the transcript and don't know what the army sent TESU.
And that's all the news for this instalment.
