Anyone take a class from Adams.edu? - contactmail - 07-26-2012
I am enrolled in a course with them and I was wondering how often the instructor grades the assignments. Do you need to contact the school and ask them to grade the assignments?

I ran into issues with my instructor not grading them. I emailed her 4 times and ended up calling cell number listed on e-mail in order to get assignments graded. I'm now waiting for her to submit final grade.... Hope you have better luck than me.

What class did you take? I has been a week and the assignments haven't been graded so I'm going to complete everything next week and then call or email until I get someone to grade everything.

Systems Analysis and Design is class I took, 15 days passed after I submitted first assignment with no grade. I contacted teacher.
Assignment 1-3 Submitted July 02 graded July 19th
Assignment 4-5 submitted July 04 graded July 19th
Assignment 6-7 submitted July 07 graded July 19th
Assignment 8-10 submitted July 10 graded July 20th
Assignment 11 submitted July 11 graded July 20th
June 27th posted in help forum regarding part of class not being accessible.
July 2nd sent e-mail that was never responded to...
July 11th resent e-mail and asked another question
As of today I still haven't heard when final grade will be submitted. My main issue is after final grade is submitted it could take an additional 5-7 days to have grade posted before I can have transcript sent.
I'm getting a busy signal now when attempting to call them.....

Cool. I am taking the same class. Did you find this class difficult? I am really strugging to complete the assignments. Was the instructor really strict with grading them?

I had started the assignments in June. They were long and alot of work ,but not really hard. Hardest part for me was doing all the boxes as I hadn't done that before. I plan on doing a review of Adams and Pennfoster when I get everything completed. It just sucks being this close to the end and running into all these snags. The part that really irks me is if I had done as they suggested and waited till first assignment was graded I would have lost half a month of time.
The first 4-5 assignments I spent a lot of time on. I had a spreadsheet that I used to calculate that even if I got half on the rest of the assignments I would still get a B in the class so I didn't spend alot of time making sure the last 5 were perfect.
I wouldn't say she was too strict ,but some of them she did tell me to watch my grammar on when I don't see how she could say that. I realize on forums I don't use the best grammar and punctuation ,but on my papers I double and triple check.
If you did well on the Quiz and exams I think you should be able to factor in if you get 200 on last assignments you can still get a B or high C
Just got through to Adams she says she sees grade there now so I'm going to go ahead and order transcript and pay extra to have it shipped faster....Down to the wire lol

Cool. Thanks for the info you have been very helpful! Are you graduating in Sept? if so, they are letting you even though it is past the deadline for Sept? This is the last class for me and I was going to try to see if they would accept it late.

Have you already applied for graduation? If you had everything else in by July 1st deadline and told them it was on the way I think you may be ok.
If you haven't then its December. And yes I'm shooting for Sept. so I can walk
You gotta hurry though I just paid to have it sent express and it says
"Express/United States - Transcripts will usually be mailed via Express Mail within 3-4 business days after the
request has been received in our office; 7-10 days during peak times. Express Mail generally delivers to the
recipient within 2-3 days. Please keep in mind that Express mail only speeds up the mailing time; it does not speed
up our processing time."
So sending it today could still make me miss deadline possibly.
