Hi, darkstar! I like that name. I do agree with you about the school, UOP. I am going into my first block of classes, for the THIRD time, and I've been attending since May. The classes, my dear, have went up to $1035 a course with $70 for each class of resources. They should just make us pay a one-time fee for the resources and not every time. I did soooooo much better in Vo-tech. I have been personally questioning myself about my decision here, feeling like I am in the wrong school. I have mentioned this and the counsellors were like, "well, I don't know. It's up to you." My acedemic counsellor told me the other day that I need to go to outside resourses because they do not offer it there. Whatever! If they say they're going to be there, they need to stand their guards. This is the third college I've attended and the recieved the worst grades in record time.

When I went to Colorado Tech Online, I actually had activities and a live chat so I can listen to the instructors speak to me. What if I didn't make the meeting? I listened to the archives. I only had to do one assignment and one Knowledge check or Individual project a week per class. I did not ever feel rushed there, even though I failed out and have a chance of going back. At Anthem College Online, I only had to do one class at a time, lasting 4 weeks each course. The due dates were on Sunday. I could do all my assignments on two or three days my choice just as long as my assignments were in by midnight Arizona time. That's 2am Central time Monday morning, where I'm at.

What I don't understand about schools is that they all say they're the right one. Anyone want to explain that? I have a kid and have to blow her off for a computer so I can try to get my 16 comments and 4 papers in 4 days a week. Now come on, this takes more than 8 hours a day to do and my daughter is in preschool from 8 to 3. Yes, she goes all day! Her preschool is different than any other that require 4 hours a day. What am I supposed to do? Choose between my child and an online school that consumes all my life!? I already lost my job, so there's more time devoted to school, but am I supposed to make my daughter raise herself and say, "I'm sorry. I don't have time to care for you. School's more important. So, cook yourself a hot dog and if you get burned, the first aid kit is where you can't reach it." I don't think so. Baby comes first. So, a school that wants us to slave ourselves to 20 months of computer and no break in between, think about it, people. I like school, but I don't have time to live on a computer 24/7 and get no credit for it because I didn't "post" to other comments. Thank you and have a nice day!
