I can't believe I finally finished Microeconomics. I studied for the exam but didn't do well on any practice tests. I decided to take it via Straighterline and failed by two points. I thought maybe I had learned enough to pass the exam but I failed (the first exam I failed!). I buckled down and took Straighterline again and finished with a 72! I am so glad to have this behind me, it was just a subject that I couldn't grasp. I passed Macro with no problem but Micro was tripping me up.
I'm going to enjoy this for a minute before I attack Statistics!

Congrats! I plan on taking this one and Macro through SL myself in a few months. As for Statistics... ugh. I'm trapped in ALEKS hell right now doing this course. Pure, unmitigated torture.

Congratulations!!! I just completed Straighterline's Statistics today with a 71.63! I am as happy as can be right now....I'm no math person at all and this was very, very hard for me. I still don't understand it but it IS a thing of the past now!
