How to press through Straighterline Courses?

[cookderosa]

Hey folks! I have to say the idea of Shmoop was silly at first and I didn't really like the courses. That being said - the content was laid out better and the system works better than SL.

I need to complete General Chemistry + Lab, Cultural Anth, English Comp 2, Algebra 1, and I am having a heck of a time. I don't know if it's the robotic layout through Moodle, or what. I can't seem to sit down and focus on the courses enough to complete chapters or assignments. SL just renewed for a second month and I haven't completed any courses, whereas I passed 4 Shmoop with no problem within 9 days.

SL has courses that UNM will accept, but they are balking at Shmoop. So I am looking to finish the accepted credits as soon as possible. 

Any thoughts, tips, or tricks?

Thanks!!

+1 what Sanantone said. But in all fairness, besides Cultural Anthropology, you picked some really hard SL courses. Chemistry is a bear, my son did high school chemistry with lab followed immediately by SL Chemistry without lab and barely passed. Out of 20 SL courses, it was his lowest score at 70% (they rounded up, I think it was actually 69.something) English comp is soooo muuuucccchhhh writing on SL and I haven't any idea about Algebra. But Anthro can be done in a weekend- go back in and just do the tests. They are OPEN BOOK.
