1. Portage learning Chemistry course

   Moved-on replied to crissy07's topic in General Students

   Labs were a bit ridiculous in my opinion - I would dictate everything said in the video verbatim onto my Word app in iPhone and I took screen shots constantly so I had detailed and searchable notes and STILL found it a challenge. In-person would hav...

2. Portage learning

   Moved-on replied to shalom88's topic in Pre-Nursing

   The videos are all online and you can watch as many times as you like, pause, rewind... There is an enormous amount of material in each unit and I found it very difficult to feel “ready“ to take the tests. (But bear in mind this was all a different...

3. Portage learning

   Moved-on replied to shalom88's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I have changed direction, no longer pursuing nursing, and no longer on these boards, but I will weigh back in here for a final comment (essay) because I took three classes from Geneva / Portage. First, your transcript will say Geneva (and if you as...

   Moved-on replied to Grace Favour's topic in Online Learning

   ONLY TWO you don't know where to start with? On the pretest? Wow! They don't count so just put your best guess and then when you see the results save the answers to study for when you get to that section in the course. Meanwhile I'm just struggling ...

   Moved-on replied to Grace Favour's topic in Online Learning

   By the way, I had to put chemistry aside for the past few months but now am about to start working on it full-time because I need to finish by May 10 or I lose my spot in the program I was accepted into (pretty likely at this point!). Anyone out the...

6. NursingABC - Portage Learning

   Moved-on replied to Grace Favour's topic in Online Learning

   I'm in Portage chemistry, my 3rd class from there, and the pretest doesn't count for anything so it takes only as much time as it takes to read and click through 9-12 pages of multiple choice. I was clueless so it didn't take long! I'm prepping for ...

7. Baylor University Fastbacc 2018

   Moved-on replied to calvalencia's topic in School Programs

   It would be undergrad because it is leading to a bachelors degree (even though you graduated once already!). Graduate refers to Masters level courses and above.

   I interviewed last Wednesday and got an email acceptance Monday (now I have to figure out how on earth to afford it!).

9. Portage learning

   Moved-on replied to shalom88's topic in Pre-Nursing

   The exams are not open book or open notes (except for the lab quizzes which allow you to use your lab notes). However, the tests are not proctored in any way so I am not sure how they monitor compliance. It is likely that, because the tests are tim...

    Moved-on replied to Grace Favour's topic in Online Learning

    Awesome - wish I could double LIKE! I wish there was a forum where Portage students could talk about stuff like this! Glad to know the neuro part is bigger than the rest - I about passed out when I saw how many questions it contained! Fortunately ...

    MPBrown, I just finished the final for AP1, expecting a 97 average, but I studied harder than I have ever studied in my life ( i'm old and have forgotten how to be in effective student so I'm basically memorizing the whole module). I've been so busy...

12. NursingABC - Portage Learning

    Moved-on replied to Grace Favour's topic in Online Learning

    I'm in AP 1 and Chemistry, and the transcripts say "Geneva College", which is regionally accredited as "legit". Baylor and MSU both told me they'd take the credit. HOWEVER, some schools (TCU) specifically say they don't take online lab courses, so ...

13. Judment call on pre-req AP

    Moved-on replied to Moved-on's topic in NP Students

    Thanks for the comment – appreciate it! Looks like I'm sticking with the online course to make sure I get the complete picture.

    Moved-on replied to Moved-on's topic in NP Students

    Thanks for the feedback, Dodongo. LOL, of course I'll do whatever I want to do but what I WANT to do is influenced by the feedback of those who know the future landscape. My context is unusual - I will NEVER work in a medical setting beyond the cl...

    Moved-on replied to Moved-on's topic in NP Students

    Thanks for the insight, umbdude! If I do go the local route and have to miss the neuro chapters, I'll definitely make it up on my own. I don't mind the extra study (I probably have a more in-depth interest than would be covered in undergrad anyway)...
