Narrowing down stats options

In your situation I would probably bite the bullet and take it at the CC. Hit rate my professor and/or talk to folks at school and figure out who will be the best teacher to provide you with success. Get tutoring early and often. Finish what you started... It's only words with numbers.

:eek: Really? <sigh>

I am fine with going to tutoring -- and I would definitely need to. The good news is that I can go to tutoring even if I am taking it online on my own. They're great about that, besides the fact that the tutors are more than 20 yrs younger than me and not very patient in my experience, but I can work with it.

I guess I should ask around again about names. I know at least two that I definitely wouldn't take it from. One scary thing about taking it at this particular CC is they very commonly switch out profs at the last minute (as in you email back & forth with whomever is scheduled to teach the course and when you show up for the 1st day of class it's someone else), so even if I would sign up for someone who is supposed to be good --AND double check with the dean's office etc, I still might have an unpleasant surprise.

The other reservation I have about taking it at a CC (vs an online course like SL) is the many many hours of busywork in a 16 wk CC semester. If that's my best option for learning I can do it, but I'd rather not spend 3 months of my life that way if I can help it.
