Finished Straigherline English II

Yes, I took English I with them three years ago when Ft. Hayes was accepting them for credit. I did not purchase anything prior to that course and just went with the flow. It took me about two weeks. I had already passed English both freshman and sophmore years prior but did not receive credit. I failed the clep test by one point while taking the test upside down (computer problem) and clep refused to allow me to retake for six months (finally agreed to three months but I would have to pay full price again). I got mad and signed up for SL and took first semester. They have added second semester since then. I was fortunate to have someone send me the instructions for the writing assignments (is how I did them in advance). I also prepared by reading Frankenstein before signing up for the class. To me the courses at Straighterline were easier then the written part of the Clep test, but that is just me. They give you the topic and you only have so many minutes to write it on an unexpected topic.

(Thus that is why I felt Clep cheated me in this instance). I got more out of the courses and feel like my writing style has improved for upper level courses if I take courses instead of testing out of everything. Good luck in whatever you decide to do. I enjoy testing out too and it can be done if you ar
