The proctor was surprised I was done so quickly. I told her it was because I didn't have to fill out all those bubbles. This is great news for my carpal tunnel syndrome! Additionally, when I got to work, I had received an e-mail with my score report.another one down!
I inquired about my next exam, Statistics. This one is not available online, at least not yet.
i'm also doing statistics next. i chose to do it now specifically because it still is a paper version. good luck to us both!

I just started reading The Complete Idiot's Guide to Statistics.

I HIGHLY recommend that you do take Principles of Finance in the paper version. I think it would be much more stressful if it was timed.
Because my exam was untimed, I was able to mosey on through the exam in a leisurely three hours. No rush, no stress, no pressure!
Easy, breezy, beautiful!
