Information about retaking Straighterline courses - UGAChemDawg - 05-09-2011
Just wanted to give everybody a head's up.
If you retake a Straighterline class trying to improve your grade, you WILL NOT get the same exams you had the first time around.
I started Accounting I on May 3rd and finished on the 6th and got an 88.5, literally about 4 questions over the entire 6 exams from getting an A. So, today I signed up for it again thinking I'd just use printouts of all my old tests and re-enter the answers, except for when a true-false question that I got wrong came up I'd just enter the opposite answer, since that's obviously the correct one.
No such luck. I just got done with the first test (got a 96, so far so good and I plan to challenge the question that I missed because I think what they say is the correct answer is wrong), and there was not a single repeat question on it. Totally different exam. Difficulty level is about the same.
So just know that when you retake a SL class, it's a whole new set of tests.
