I also tend to like online classes. There have been times when certain things aren't presented as clearly as they would be in class, but the teachers have been open to answering questions through e-mail. I especially like the fact that there isn't a specific time to be at class so I can work the assignments around other responsibilities and errands that come up.
I don't know if another affirmation will help, but I did my first post-grad qualification (though not in nursing) online and it was great. They provided all the material, so there was no spending hours in the library or schlepping off to class for an hour twice a week. It was before I was online, so the net support was minimal, but the few times I needed help the coordinator was wonderful. I think it's an ideal way for motivated RNs to study because of the flexibility, but as other posters have cautioned, it's easy to let the assessments slide :)
Actually, I am taking a break from my online Pathophysiology coursework to surf the net and alas I find the question about online courses. I am in an RN/BSN program with online classes...and I really like them. Right now I am so overwhelmed with this semester and it just started this week. Patho is difficult anyway....Good luck to you!
