Hi everyone,
This is my 100th post!
First thanks to everyone here who regularly contributes Buburja, NAP, ryoder, cookderosa, purpleteen, bricabrac and alleycat. (this is not meant as a comprehensive list, if I missed you, thank you too!)
Well everyone I'm done. I just finished the capstone exam and I'm proud to say I scored an A (98%) in the course! I posted feedback on it for future students in the course. Having done the independent study courses at CSU and Straighterline, and the DSST/CLEP exams, I can say that a 15 week course is a challenge in patience and focus. I'm glad I only had this course going on and not anything else, that helped me. I did work a bit ahead but the format of the course required regular weekly participation, so that helped me stay motivated.
Now I play the waiting game until October when the diploma arrives!
