It's definitely tricky to get the hang of. You know what I went through from messaging about it.
For everyone else- I actually quit the first time I tried one of these courses. I was getting very frustrated and just gave up while on the free 24-hour trial. (you can read my initial annoyances with the site here on page 5: http://www.degreeforum.net/general-educa...ses-5.html) After playing around with it a little more about a week later I found a system that worked for me but I have a hard time explaining it. I tried to explain it to Mamasaphire, but unfortunately she wasn't able to have the same success I did. The search function is so hit-or-miss and I literally found my success through luck. I ended up searching in the wrong course but I was able to find the answers. I was definitely happy to get these courses done as they were grueling. I think my highest grade from the courses was a 74%. That was perfectly fine with me just to get these credits and be done with them.
