I am currently taking 1302 and I am going to drop it (for the 2nd time). It is absolutely imppssible to complete the work required while taking care of your family and working full time. For the last 2 weeks my life has been nothing but work and algebra, and I still don't know what I'm doing. I hired a tutor and spent 4 hours in the last 2 days with her at $35/hr. I need a 2nd job to pay a tutor! You don't get a chance to absorb and be comfortable with what you are learning because of the homework required and the instructor skips steps in the pen casts. She assumes we already are familiar with the content. Are we able to take 1301 in place of 1302? If so, I wish my advisor would have informed me of this.
