Has anyone taken Texas Government - GOVT 2306 - at a school other than TAMUC? I applied for a self-paced course at Central Texas College and am just wondering how long it takes. I have vacations and such I need to be able to schedule around. I will be taking the Fall 2 semester off to go on vacation and I'm looking at the CTC dates to try and work it in. Thanks!
In other news, I have struggled getting interviews for jobs I was more than qualified for, like many of you have. I went ahead and updated my resume with an Education section, where I listed my upcoming bachelor's with an expected Spring 2025 completion. I got interviewed and hired for a dream job within three weeks. So, you may go ahead and try it yourself if you have jobs you want to apply for! You know, a resume only has one job - to get you that interview!

Thanks. I see a lot of people recommending WTAMU as an easy course but it's also more expensive at $699. May be worth it, but CTC is $390 if my research is true. Mostly wondering how long these courses are generally taking.

Depends where you're going to get the class from, you can review the classes available at the community college or another university, within their catalog of classes available, it'll show the class dates/times. If it's a semester or an accelerated class or not, etc... What did it say for CTC that was going for $390 or so?

If I was able to complete the TX govt from TAMUC, then you can too!!
The first Learning Objective is the hardest. The problem with this class is that all of the tests are timed, and the reading material is all over the place. You have to do the writing prompts that were given to you in the pre test before you start the tests at the end of each learning objective. With the writing assignments complete for the learning objective you can search through the reading material "CTRL F" is your friend. Use this to help you find information for the multiple choice questions on the Learning Objectives.
You could also take all of the reading material and copy paste it to one document for easier CTRL F searching.
When I started TX govt I was ready to quit and just take the class at the local community college. After I got past Learning Objective 1, things got better (yes the class layout sucked) and I was able to power my way through it.
If a 40 something year old who took their last college college class in the late 90's could finish this class, you can be successful too.
This is one of the hardest (because of the poor layout) classes for the CBE program at TAMUC. If you can finish this, you CAN finish this degree.
If you are stuck in this class, send me a PM and let me know where you are stuck.
