online history course - Strozew3 - 04-29-2019
Hello all,
I am suppose to be graduating in June with my BSN, HOWEVER, I need to pass a history test/class first to do so. I have tried US history 1 CLEP twice and got a 45 then 47. I am taking Western Civilization 1 later this week, I suck at history and I am preparing for the worse. Anyone know of any easy online history courses that may transfer to uw-Milwaukee. They do not take straighterline :/
thank you!!! In desperate need!!!!!

You could try Study.com. You take essentially open-booked quizzes. If you get a 100% on all the quizzes with multiple tries, then you need a 50ish on the final to pass.

Unfortunately I don't think study.com is accepted at my college either. I am going to look into Sophia. Like I said, I have the CLEP test later this week but im not feeling confident at all.

If the clep doesn’t work out you could try a maymester course at your college or a local community college. It may or may not be cheap depending on where you take it.

I would try US History II - you probably know more about that just because it's more recent.
You might also try different test-prep materials than you've been using for the CLEPs - did you use ModernStates.org (which gets you a free CLEP exam)? How about Crash Course? Khan Academy?
There are also online courses at schools like Rio Salado (a CC in AZ), which has 8-week terms and rolling start dates (looks like every Monday).

Rio Salado college has courses that start just about every Monday. They are 8 weeks long. As stated previous of my post.

Do they have proctored quiz and final test?
RE: online history course - videogamesrock - 04-30-2019
There’s writing quizzes and probably a final. They post the syllabus with the course online and not all courses have proctors - yet.
