Everyone post the easiest straigherline course you've taken

With some good determination, how fast do you think someone could knock out Intro to Religion, Anthropology, and Business Ethics?

I was planning on doing DSSTs for each of those, but if I could successfully push my self to complete them in 1 month on SL I would end up saving some money.

I haven't taken SL before, but I have taken a variety of practice tests / snippet quizes for Intro to Religions DSST to see how I'd fair. The DSST at least seems to cover a basic overview of world religions such as "What isn't a name of God in Judaism?" (multichoice) with a few complicated questions that involve history snippets of various events with religion. Glancing at the SL course it seems to be a little bit more in depth compared to the DSST. On the plus side the graded exams are all listed by topic and then there's a final exam which I assume is a little bit more like the overall DSST exam.

Unless you have previous experience with those courses (say you know a lot about religion) the quickest way is to read the chapters and take the tests. I've heard of people completing a SL course over a three-day weekend.

Well, I can say PHYSCIS 1 was Very Hard, and not structured well, I know of at 3 of us who struggled through it. I have to take it 3 times back to back before they change the way they score the retakes.
