I have seen conflicting info on this, so just thought I would ask...Do The Accounting and Economics courses have timed exams and quizzes? If so, how much time are you given to complete them?
I am planning to sign up before the end of the week, and am hoping to complete all 4 courses within 28 days. I have been working through the textbook some already, but am just wanting to see how much I need to memorize/have written down in easily accessible notes before I actually am at the point of signing up and quizzing. Thanks in advance for the answers!
I can only answer economics...the tests are open book and have a 2hr time limit...but the testing window will remain active for up to 5hrs.
for the quizzes, just go to the books website and review the quizzes 1, 2 3 from each chapter and you will be good to go. the quizzes are ungraded but i understand help with the test. I havent yet found the correlation.
From the feedback on the forum, many have completed these courses quick and easy. Personally, I don't like straighterline but I will have to stomach it to complete macro and maybe micro (not sure yet). It's cheap but enter at your own risk. Because I don't like it I've been putting off signing on. Only four chapter completed in two weeks. I chose to spend the better part of my time finishing up my TESC courses (GPA much more important than a pass/fail course) then playing with macro. I will now return to macro and hopefully complete the course before the next monthly payment.:ack:
Good Luck!! I sincerely hope you are one of those that blow through the coursework!eeya:
