Has anyone taken these classes online?

Has anyone taken the following classes online, preferably Rio Salado?
PSY 230 Statistics
PHI 103 Logic
CHM 151 Fundamental Chemisty
HCR 230
How long ago did you take it, and what was your experience? Easy or difficult? Lots of writing, or multiple choice quizzes?
I have taken many classes through Rio and know that some are really tough and others are a cakewalk. Thanks! :typing

Sorry I know this doesn't answer your question but did you take Chm 130 at Rio? If so would you mind PMing telling me the teachers name?

Thanks

No problem, I totally see that being me. I went ahead registered for because I don't want to take that and Bio 201 over the summer. Just want to focus and concentrate on each. I took HCR 230 online through PC and it was pretty easy. Didn't interfere with other classes.

Thanks!

HCR230

I took it at Rio last fall.

Not a lot of writing; but, the final was a research paper (teacher walked us through it by having the assignment before the final an outline with all references).

If you've taken online classes before you know that it is fairly difficult to anticipate which terms are *important*. I found this to be *very* true in this class.

I did not find this to be a difficult class; but, you *really* have to study and know the terms so that you have them down for the quizzes and tests.

Good luck,

Mark

I am taking PHY 230 and having a hard time with it... I am going to go in and get some one on one time to see if I can understand it a little better.

I took PSY230 online via Rio Salado and I aced the class. It was all right out of the book and SO easy. Even the final was a take home test! I wish all of Rio's classes were that easy! (I attained an AA through Rio, so I've taken quite a few classes there.)

I took several classes online through Rio including PSY230. THe class was IMO fairly easy. Each lesson went through the chapter with practice problems reinforcing the homework and quizzes. Any mistakes on homework could be corrected and resubmitted. I really felt like the instructor, unlike some other online classes I have taken, was there to help and wanted me to suceed. All in all as long as I did the practice problems and homework the class was quite simple. BTW, I got an A no problem!

I only looked up the terms to find out what they mean and did the problems that they asked for my own understanding. I would follow along with the problems in the book, but just applied the numbers that the homework/tests were asking to the problems in the book. Nope, never read the book.

Seriously, I don't know why I am having a hard time... I she does allow me to resubmit I have to resubmit before the midterm in two weeks. Does anyone have any of there left over notes that they used to help them out??? I have hardly any time to go to the school for help. So hoping maybe seeing some ones notes would help me... thank you all for your responses...
