APHY 101 online - Ivy Tech

lol...have no idea why your post was in italics, maybe it was selected mistakenly.
Anyway, yes that darn test was non proctored...lol and I still got an 84, although the instructor has not graded yet so maybe (fingers crossed) it will be adjusted?!
I promise though I am not getting any of this. I have almost just given up because I am so lost. Most subjects come easy to me but I think I psyched myself out reading about how hard the class was and the failure rate etc. So now I am just way too intimidated and I wish I would have taken it f2f instead.
Looks like I may be rearranging my schedule for next semester as well!

A moderator on the Ivy Tech Community College Discussion Board posted this in regards to being able to retake classes to earn a higher grade:

"If you are referring to an APHY class, we are currently reviewing the policy. Previously, students were allowed to retake the APHY course as many times as possible. This has presented a problem with students taking this course multiple times without restriction. We are now in the midst of reviewing this policy to make the process fair for all students."

I just responded to that Emmi. She is full of it! It clearly states that you can only retake two times until you need permission from the department chair! Its definitely not going to be fair to those of us who need to retake next semester to get in, in the fall start. If I have to be stuck with my B then I will be screwed. This isn't fair. I hope that they think this through and allow students' opinions on it.

I really hope not either. If they do change this then I would hope it would not take affect until Fall semester. I think it is too close to the spring semester to just up and change something like this but who knows!!
I am also curious if this would make it harder or easier to get in...

I think it will lessen somce of the competition because while you will still have As, there are many others who are B students (and as my aphy prof said, As are for crazy people! lol) so it should ease the application process. BUT we wouldn't see a change in that until probably the fall start in 2011.
