Anyone else in this with me? It's up on blackboard!

My grades for mod 1 and 2 are not posted yet. I am in serious misery also, this is very difficult. I am so discouraged and ready to drop right now. I didn't think the first two assignments were hard, but now that we are into the serious math I am scared to death. Is this really do- able?

Don't let the math scare you. Really, I was horrible in math in school. I hadn't had a math class in 35 years. It really isn't a lot of math. I looked at some of the web sites for kids to help refresh my memory about the algebra I had forgotten. If you have problems getting the questions right, email your TA or prof. I found them really helpful, not at all condescending. They know most of us are math-phobic. My TA would look at what I had done and told me where I made mistakes.

Hang in there!

I don't know how many I missed for mod 1, but quite a few. I thought I had a fairly good understanding. I got 100% on mod 2 though. I'm taking this with Evidence, and I am going to lose my ever loving mind. I have a 3.9 GPA, and I am so afraid I'm going to kill it with these classes.

How is everyone doing with this class? Midterm is next week.

terrified, absolutely terrified. I just hope I can pass :(

What's the 'statistics' on how many fail this class???

I'm hanging in there. I missed 2 on Mod 1 and 1 on Mod 2. Been working the last 6 days and submitted Mod 3 late last night. Will get to Mod 4 tomorrow. The videos have helped me. Hope I do well on the mid term next week. I really hope I pass this class.

This class is a lot easier than I thought it would be. Especially considering I haven't had any math since high school. Missed 1 question each on Mods 1 & 2, and got 100% on Mod 3. Just turned in Mod 4 and will start working on 5 today.

I've found that, for me, the book describes everything really well to the point that I feel I don't need to watch the videos. However, I learned that I have to watch them anyway because the answers to some questions can't be found in the book. I just assumed "supplemental" meant "optional" but that's not the case.

I'm on the fence. I really get some of it, then others I struggle so bad on. I'm spending a ridiculous amount of time on the work. I'm so stressed, but I'm also taking Evidence with it. Big mistake. I knew I shouldn't take stats with anything else, but it would have really screwed me up not to. Thankfully my husband is a HUGE help with our kids right now.

How are things going? Any updates?

Taking my midterm today!

Took the midterm this morning. There were a lot more theory questions than I expected, but no real surprises. Halfway done!!!

Thanks for the update! Good Luck!

Only one more week everyone! Will be so glad when this class is over.
