BSBA-CIS Upper Level Question

[sanantone]

Software Engineering at Saylor is better than Computer Communications and Networks. I failed Software Engineering by a couple of points, though. The biggest problem was that they use a lot of old terminology, and I studied more up to date resources.

I've Cloud Computing and Big Data registered already at CSU Global, I just have to pay to take the exam, I did my Info Sys Analyst and Design last night, I'm pretty confident I did well, and I some practice exam on Cloud Computing and Big Data and did very well, Ill wait until I get a grade first before I pay to take it.

On the other hand, I fail my proctor exam from PF for International Business, I have another retry in about two weeks, so I'll have to hit the books a bit more. I'm not sure if the instructor was a bad grader or if it was me. I did two other course and all all with 88 and 89, just a minor setback, the only reason I did PF because my employer paid for it, but damn final is all writing.

RRMIKE, did you fail the course or just the exam? I thought 70% cumulative for Penn Foster would grant you credit. Do they have a requirement for every exam has to be over 70%? When I took their courses, I don't recall if they did or not, but you should have "passed" the course as the final is only 33% of the grade. If you have over 70% cumulative, you should be fine. Email the person who helped you register for the course... she'll confirm for you.

I fail just the proctor exam, the final does need 33% to pass, needless to say I got a 44/100, I'm very disappointed but I have another shot at it, I need to score a 58 on the final to pass the course.  I didn't do too well on the other exam, and if I retake them the highest grade you can get is a 70 if you do the retake, I got two 70's two 75's and 95, and 44 on the final.

70+70+75+75+95 = 51% out of the 67%, so I need the other 19% from the final, which comes out to about 58/100 or close to that.

or something like that... I'm stress right now lol

For the 70's and 75's, did you "retake" them to get that score? I assume the 95 is the project graded by Donna Evans? If you have the time, review the 70's and 75's, you get a retake for those a second time. I recall I had a crappy score for them the first time around. The second time I did them, they were all 90's and higher. Make sure to redo them if you haven't already, if you have, then focus on the final again.

[RRMIKE]

The 70’s I retake those to get that score, the 75’s once you have a passing grade on the first try there’s no more retake.

When you do a retake the highest grade you can get is a 70, even if you score 100, you still get only a 70 because of the retake.

[bjcheung77]

Oh dang, that must have changed sometime after I finished it... I remember getting 90's or more on the retake, so I kind of "winged" the first exam to get a feel of the exam and studied what I missed... I think everything is open book still, so that first and retake exams shouldn't have been all that hard... good luck.

study.com international business was long and annoying but easy. Just writing 4 papers.

Why are you not taking digital marketing from study.com that is the easiest UL 3 credits you will get. I passed the course in 1 day with no studying. easiest one I can think of.


Also remember you will need a programming course.

[RRMIKE]

What course will Digital Marketing fill? I'm sure I'll pass International Business on this second try around.

Unless Digital Marketing fill in one of my CIS course?

[yb1]

For me digital marketing came in as an UL course that was used in my AOS for CIS
