Hi,
I am currently attending Broward College (Central). I am wondering if anyone might be able to give me some advice or share their experience with the online program. I am thinking about going online for Ortho/Neuro, Cardio & Trends.
I know those are difficult classes, but I have changes in my personal life and spending less time on campus might work out better.
I am open to all comments/suggestions. If you want, PM me if you would rather keep your commetns private.
Thanks in advance!

I graduated from Central online program in August 2010. One thing is certain about online learning vs face to face, you have to be a self starter and be able to self teach. Being online means you have to manage your time to the T. You are teaching yourself the subjects and using blackboard "notes" to fill in the gaps. If you can learn in this style you will be fine, but if you need to be lectured to in order to learn don't go online for sure. There was also alot postings in the form of discussions and paper writing to do. Basically (busy work). The onliners get slammed with all the extra stuff since they don't go to lectures. Good luck.
