StraighterLine Macro Economics - Doctor H - 09-14-2011

I'm at the midway point of Straighterline's Macro course and these are my observations so far.

1. The practice tests are very easy compared to the assessments. However, the midterm isn't anywhere near as difficult as the assessments. Go figure.

2. 20 Assessments is very time consuming. The sheer length of this course is quite taxing considering the amount of reading WITH the 2 hour long assessments with every chapter.

3. A lot of the question are not found in the book, rather the concept is in the book and the assessments attempt to gauge the students understanding of the concepts and topics. Suffice to say, it's not as "easy" as I thought it would be.

My goal is to finish this course in the next 5-7 days then move on to English. Wish me luck

Straighterline has listed these Transfer College Credit for Online College Courses to Excelsior College - StraighterLine as Excelsior acceptable.

When you check on the ACE website, there are additional courses, e.g, Anatomy & Phys, Medical Terminology, Intro to Psyc,

would i get transfer for those on the Ace site but not on the straighterline site???
