I took Human Motivation via CD Rom.

It was a lot of writing but you could do it in your own time frame. There were 4 papers total. The instructor was very fair. I asked for an extension and she gave it to me. You also had to use APA format which was new to me.

I got an A.

that is pretty much it, write four papers in less than 15 weeks and youll do fine.

Lots of Excelsior material can be purchased on E-bay very reasonably! Generally less expensive than books, go to Ebay site and click on to books
then type in excelsior and the subject. I am in their nursing program and
purchased a cd-rom with all seven nursing test material for 9.99+ shipping.

I did the Excelsior English Composition/Writing course with CD-ROM. It was the same format: 4 projects spread over 15 assignments using APA style.

It was definately alot of writing. There were not tests, everything was based on your homework.

They have a guideline as to when assignments should be turned in. I fell 6 weeks behind and had to play catch up.

In the end I got an A in the class. It's possible to finish faster, but I took the whole time due to several business trips that I knew would take me out of the country for weeks at a time. It's very nice not having tests and working on it when you have time.
