Excelsior College Online course frustration

[Professor_Adam]

Well, I just wanted to update from my earlier post. I am now 75 percent of the way done with my English Comp class at EC. Overall, despite not being able to work ahead, I'm happy with the course. Primarily it involves a lot of essay writing but to me that's easy so the class has been a breeze. I just wish I could make the class go faster. The pace is too slow for me.

What 2 classes are you currently taking at Excelsior? My company won't pay for exams but I hate the thought of a 12 week class. I have taken Human Motivation via CD but there really aren't a lot of CD classes offered. I need upper level classes.

I would go with Penn Foster, cheaper and quicker and you will receive a letter grade, and you do not need to wash the class with a ACE Transcript for credit. They will take it directly from PFC with no problems.
