self-paced classes suck

has anyone taken these? sort of like online classes, but no computer involved. basically you read/study on your own and then go and take the test whenever you want during office hours.

i took an oceans class and it sucked azz. there were 10 tests, with each test covering 2-3 chapters. the only good part was that we were able to retake a test as many times as we wanted if it was below an 80. the highest you can get when you retake was still an 80. so, if you made a 60 and retake to get a 100, the highest would be an 80. there was a cut-off date 2 months into the class to retake tests 1-5. after that you only get 1 chance.

the sucky part was that we would all wait till like 3 weeks before the semester was to be over to cram all 10 tests in
