<p>I had planned on taking a couple summer classes at a CC, but the 4 days of summer orientation is messing up that idea. So, what about online classes? Is this a wise choice since I'll miss a week of class with the orientation? Plus, online classes wouldn't interfere with work. Has anyone done them? What do you think of them? Are they harder or easier? </p>

<p>I was wanting to take the required 6 hours of US History and the 3 hours of Eng. Lit. Does it matter if the Eng. is British or American?</p>

<p>You can always take them next summer.</p>

<p>Of course. I wouldn’t recommend anything that applies to your major or sciences/maths. Take the basic humanities and such.</p>

<p>Agreed. I just want to get rid of some core classes that don’t matter and save math and science for the long term. </p>

<p>So, is online harder than in class?</p>

<p>Depends completely on the class.</p>

<p>I took Sociology last summer. Basically I read the notes the day we were supposed to take the test, took the test online, got an A and didn’t go back on the site until the next test day. =P It was the easiest class I’ve ever taken.</p>

<p>You have to watch out though because I know some online classes require you to take the test at a physical place and some don’t. I was just lucky that all of mine was online. </p>

<p>But then I took anatomy and it was hella hard so it just depends.</p>

<p>US History and Eng seems like they would be pretty easy. Just check the teachers on myedu first. </p>

<p>Eng. Lit can be World, Britain, American…there might be one more maybe. </p>

<p>^ there you can pick your community college and then see what classes transfer for what.</p>

<p>Thanks for the info. </p>

<p>I’ve taken Anatomy (classroom) and no way would I recommend it to anyone as an online class.</p>
