by Jaylon G. on November 18, 2024
Very long but worthit
by Keith C. on November 18, 2024
Tough course, lots of multistep formulas in which the processes aren't clearly explained in the lessons, but incorrect answers on tests and quizzes have explanations so you can figure it out that way.
by Matthew K. on November 18, 2024
Great course I had a hard time with the typing recognition though.
by Sienna H. on November 18, 2024
Very condescending to believers in God and Christ. The majority of the course was a sad example of people trying to find morality without acknowledging God- a futile effort, as stable as grasping at the wind. It was quick to go through, however, which was good!
