Anyone else taking this?
I went for my orientation this morning. I'm taking Nutrition as a self-study DVD course. We have to show up for proctored tests every other week. Each test covers 2 to 3 chapters. Other than that, we're on our own. She gave us an outline of notes to go along with our text. She also gave us test study guides, which she says will be about 90% of what's on the tests. I'm hoping it isn't too bad; I'm also taking A&P II, Micro and English Comp.
She just posted our syllabus - our whole grade is three equally weighted tests. No assignments, no extra credit, no quizzes, no possible way to bring your grade up if you make a couple mistakes or study wrong for the first test. I'm taking it with A&P II, so hopefully we'll do digestion early in that class and I'll have a better base. Then Eng Comp II and my 30 hr/wk job. This'll be a fun semester.
