Ok I'm confused... I wanted to take an online class this summer because I didn't want to go to campus sense it was only one class... so in siging up I notice there is one mandatory meeting to introduce the program...which is cool no problem... during the meeting for our online class the teacher explains there will be 4 mandatory meetings to do examinations...on top of the quizes... ok then why not just have the class once a week sense I still have to go up there to do the freaking examination.... its like the concept of online was reduced ok maybe I am over reacting...

I don't know what school you are going to but online classes are totally online. I have taken 4 and I have taken the class totally online, I did not have to go into the school for any reason.

yah, i agree with you. I just think the school want save money and hire part time teachers to teach more than one online class. The school wins....it's always about money.
