Fail or Epic Fail?

[burbuja0512]

Thanks so much for the response. I'm glad to hear that I'm not the only one that feels this way about accounting.

I think that I have a solution. I HOPE that I end up passing SL, but there is an option if I fail the first time. This may be good info for anyone worried about failing a SL class. From their website:

Can I take a course again if I fail it?
Students may retake a for-credit course as many times as they choose. Final grades for retakes will be averaged with the student's previous scores in the course. $399 students will need to repurchase the course. $99/month students will need to notify their Course Advisor and pay a new $39 fee. Developmental courses may be taken as many times as needed without averaging final scores.

Does a failing grade affect my college transcripts?
This is a great aspect of StraighterLine-because StraighterLine is not a college, your work is not a part of your academic record until the information is transferred to a partner college or a college awarding credit for American Council of Education (ACE) approved courses. Because failing grades will not earn you credit at a Partner College, StraighterLine recommends retaking the course until you pass and then transferring your successfully completed distance learning coursework.



Since I'm on the $99/month plan, it would end up costing me an extra 40 bucks to take it again. I don't even care about the money as much as I don't want to spend any more time on accounting, but at least there is a hope for me in case I just can't learn it on the first go-around.
