<p>yea, i live in salem its about an hour commute in for me too. im taking an online lit class as well. i think i'll be taking all classroom classes next semester. you get more feedback and benefit from discussions alot more when you're actually meeting with the professor and other students.</p>
<p>i work a full-time job on top of going to school full-time. i found that i couldnt fit a scheduled math class.. so i opted for the self-paced course...i figured i could study when i get home from work at 12am, or at work when its slow, or on my lunch breaks, etc. the attendance requirement means i have to physically be in the classroom a certain number of hours per week...it defeats the purpose of being able to do the work during the odd hours that are my spare time lol it's still alot more flexible but i literally dont have 4 extra hrs a week to sit in the lab when it's open. i either have other classes or have to be at work.</p>
