I remember that thread regarding how most big three students like to take online classes vs. testing out and they're blissfully unaware of any other way to get credit. I started because I stumbled onto Bain4weeks and got really excited about the prospect of not getting tortured in classes. After spending 100 on most of my 3SH classes for CLEP/DSST and $218 through Penn Foster I was blown away at having to pay over $700 to take one course at TESC. Thankfully I'm taking my midterm in this class tomorrow (Business Mathematics) and so far I have 100% in the course. The biggest downer about taking courses at TESC (other than the high cost) is that it takes 3 friggin months and there's no way to speed it up so it delayed my graduation quite a bit. I missed the June graduation because I was ignorant of that fact and didn't sign up soon enough for it. Anyway, SOOOOO glad this is almost over and these changes won't affect me. It seems that over time the big three will make it so there are less and less options to graduate through them without spending more money at their school. We got it while the getting was good. Hurray!
