Straighterline Psychology UPdate - About Danm Time - deucess - 09-08-2014
Hey,
I just got this and I was to excited, so I had to update. Y'all remembered the issue I had with Straighterline for my Psychology class that I had to have 70% on both the "final" and the class 5 months ago. (LINK Below). Anyway, just received this email below. I didn't retake the exam, I went ahead and put in my transcript and it was processed, so glad I didn't wait on them.

Hello,
I am emailing to notify of a change to our PSY101 passing criteria. After discussing with the American Council on Education who reviewed our PSY101 course we have been able to remove the requirement from the course where you must achieve greater than 70% on the course and the final exam.
A passing score for PSY101 is now simply a score greater than or equal to 70%. Based on this change and our records within the course you are now eligible to request a transcript for PSY101.

This is welcome news, especially since I hear SL's Psychology is pretty difficult.

I am so glad to see this. I was just reading the original thread for updates. Wondering if sraighterline requires 70% on the final exam to pass this course or others? I'm wanting to take a couple courses from them. Has anyone else had this issue?

Unless something has changed since this thread was posted, you do not need 70% on a final exam for an SL course.
