Straighterline Review

[bjcheung77]

I’m taking the Criminal Justice course right now. I just took the midterm which was 50 questions. How many questions are on the final, if you remember?

StraighterLine courses are easy to pass, I wouldn't sweat it. If you've done well on everything, you just need to do the final to pass.

Great write up!!

On average, how long did it take for you to complete the classes?

For the classes without writing I would say 4-7 days (Micro took longer), and the ones with writing took longer about 2 weeks.

Self paced works for me because at times I will spend an entire night working on something and at other times I wouldn't touch it for days.

 
Goblue34,

Thanks for the write-up.  Can you clarify what you mean on length of time required.  You said 4-7 days - how many hours does that make?  I'm going to go at it full-time, so I would like to gauge how effective I might be.

FYI, you're replying to a post from 2015.

In general, I'd say most courses take from 10-80 hours to complete, depending on how familiar you are with the subject matter before you begin. This applies to most self-paced online courses via places like SL or Study.com. So, if you can dedicate 8 hours a day to course review and study, many courses can be completed in a week or less.. some within a day or two. Obviously, if you're putting in less time, expect it to take longer and vice-versa. Also, math courses and those with writing assignments or projects may take even more time since you need to do a lot of extra work on the side.
