    Hold me brehs, I can't get up. I got b****slapped.

    I had technical difficulties with a mini mester class. Syllabus wasn't on deck till wednesday. The pace was so fast told me she doesnt accept late work and If I can't take the zeros to drop the class. "Good luck on my next class". All this and it's just the beginning of the second week. Lone Star for you. Powertripper? I'm just too alpha?


    Am I on the wrong? Should I demand a refund? I already replied to her the nicest way I could, waiting on response.

    Some people complain on message boards but others say I'm mad as hell and not going to take it anymore.

    You are getting three hours of credit for three weeks of work. Therefore, you are going to have a lot of work for those three weeks. Welcome to reality. Man up, do the assignments, and stay organized. If you can do those things, you can't possibly fail an online class. This is coming from a guy taking nine hours of classes this summer, all online.

    Valuable lesson. I paid out of pocket.

    I'm going to see if I can get a refund.

    Like someone above said, you should of beem prepared for the jam packed summer course. They are so fast paced its unreal. I took art history at hcc and it seemed like we had a test every day.

    Contrary to popular belief, they aren't that bad. To be successful, divide up the work for the course into a daily set of assignments. Do the workload for the day in the morning and then relax for the rest of the day.

    You're failing a community college class that meets anytime you want twenty-four hours a day, anywhere on the planet.

    They have public speaking classes online these days? How do the logistics of this even work? Do you give speeches over Skype or something to the rest of the class?

    LOL my thoughts exactly. The class description says I have to record a video of my speeches in front of an audience of 5. I've put this class off for so long, I just decided to get it over with in a few weeks. The logistics of it definitely are a little strange, though.

    I have a weight lifting class online.


    I bench 500lbs, 800lbs deadlift, and run a mile in 2.5 minutes. I have the highest grade in my class.
