Just took my final exams for a few Penn Foster course and wow
#1
They were much more intensive then I could have imagined. Each of the three courses I took had 4 online exams and a final written proctored exam. The online exams were multiple choice and fairly easy(I did one course without the book using common sense and general knowledge)

So I figured the final exams would be about the same....NOPE 20 essay questions the first few questions requiring at least 1-2 paragraphs per answer. Now that might not sound that bad, but what really killed me was the hour time limit for each test. As I'm searching the book for answers trying to write a few paragraphs I see the clock ticking down. I guess all in all it wasn't horrible I just felt a bit blindsided, taking four easy multiple choice tests and then boom all essay final.
