Hey there, that's great that you are also in Ethics, maybe we can keep in touch. RUE is a publishing company that basicly does all of the research for you and provides you the learning materials - such as books, study guides, post tests, etc. It pretty much just does the research for you so that you don't have to read the entire book. It's the more expensive way to go through EC but I don't really have the time so I think it's worth it. You can find out more about it at Rueed.com. They publish all of the study material, and then once you pass the exams it transfers over to EC. I was looking at some websites that RUE sent to me about Ethics today and I thought, oh my this is more in depth than I thought. I was thinking it would be more like common sense kind of stuff, but it was a lot more indepth than that. I'm glad there's someone going through this course with me, as this is my first course.
