Penn Foster Macroeconomics - Proctored? - rowan555 - 04-19-2018

Does this course have a proctored final? I know some of their courses don't. For those who have taken it, how is the difficulty compared to Straighterline, Study, etc? My younger son is getting his high school diploma with PF and has 5 college courses included. I'm trying to help him decide which to take, so this information will be helpful!

No idea, but I HATED microeconomics (and I thought macroeconomics was relatively painless). I used Study.com which was 10x easier than SL, for what that's worth.

I also did my high school with PF (with 5 college courses) and currently doing their AS in CIS. PF doesn't post this information, but their academic adviser may give out the info if you call them.

Thanks. How is your experience with their college courses in general?

Well...I just started and took their orientation. Yet to start the courses. But will keep updates.
