Review:

When I first registered, I enrolled in the independant online studies.  This is suppose to be at your own pace with the choice of taking a final exam or writing a research paper.  About 3 classes into the program they changed the rules.  It is mandatory for you to participate in the discussion board which is a part of the interactive studies.  That was the biggest difference between independant and interactive, the names say it all.  Now we are being forced to work at the schools pace and the other students paces instead of our own.  There is no way you can work at your own pace a participate in the discussion because the discussion comes from the reading assignments and the discussions are due weekly.  If you don't participate, they will drop your final grade by a letter.  They might be cheap but the way they conduct their online program is WRONG. They should only advertise that they have a interactive class.
