    Online classes are awful, i had to drop my online psychology class because my school, FIT, runs with this Angel System and thing was Angel wasn’t working well for me. By time school’s IT fixed the bug in my account I had 2 assigments overdue hence i had to drop class. Never again! Plus real-life classes you make friends and like davidthesurfer said, yes girls!

    Listen if you have ADD then it might be the best decision for you. Because everything is right there for you at all times. There is little room for loss of documents due to the fact that you are saving all of them on your computer. But it might be a good idea to save a paper copy of your notes as well just for back up.

    @69NAWAR69 I don’t understand what you mean by trackable, but yes there are certain online schools and online academic programs within traditional brick and mortar schools where you can complete all of your required courses online towards your degree.

  7. 69NAWAR69 says:

    Could I just like do my entire bachelors degree courses online? Cuz if companies don’t care and it isn’t trackable in your application, I’ll gladly do it.

    I just took an online class from a community college that i’m planning on going to after i graduate high school. It was ok, not much to write home about. Honestly i prefer a classroom situation where you actually know the teacher and fellow students.

    @davidthesurfer lol

    @clarkallard

    You can take online labs, I have done it before. The reason some classes can’t be offered online is because of testing. Examination in courses like the ones I mentioned are difficult and they don’t allow a student to sit there with an open book. Additionally, you can take lectures online and labs on campus. So you your example, much like yourself, is simply incorrect.

    @harvellt you mean mo cheapa

  14. clarkallard says:

    @Akhotnik Fail. The reason you cant take science classes is because THEY HAVE LABS! Wow, some people are so simple.

    I got my entire undergrad via online classes. It is not easier. There is a lot more work than traditional classes and you have to figure it out yourself. The tests and quizzes are open book, however they aren’t worth much. Anything worth substantial points is a paper or project.

    In addition, I would not receive my graduate from an online school (and i didn’t). Whatever your final degree is I advise you to obtain it from a traditional university.

    She has a vagina….

    Vagina is never ignored.

  17. MarsManatee says:

    @MrHav1k Statements like this are almost always made by people who are also pretty bad at talking to girls.
    If you’re unattractive, find an equally unattractive girl and chat her up. She almost certainly feels just as ignored as you do.

    No online classes are offered at my college. I wouldn’t take them anyway, since I love the classroom experience. And my classes would be pointless without the discussions.

  19. Hamhark98 says:

    @youngbuck189 Going on Jayars point everyone in Anas class probably loved it.

  20. CitizenofDystopia says:

    @TheNewSchoolGamer Yup, they were science courses, and they were nothing compared to the lab courses I’ve taken in person.

  21. MrHav1k says:

    @davidthesurfer

    Only if you’re attractive enough for them to give a shit about you.

  22. MrAndreBoogie says:

    At my school, the midterm and final for an online class is taken in a computer lab monitored by a professor. So essentially, that was the only time you actually met your classmates.

  23. Akhotnik says:

    Online class = easy. There is a reason you can’t take serious courses online. (i.e Organic chem, 500+ level classes, etc) At least classes regarding science.

  24. harvellt says:

    more cheeper …

  25. BuckleySmash says:

    I have taken 3 writing classes, and 2 computer classes online. They’re alright, but just like on-site classes, it depends on the instructor. Online classes are a bit harder for me. I don’t really take notes, but I learn best by listening to the instructor and looking at whatever aid the instructor is using to teach. With an online class, you have to read the lecture. People don’t realize that it still takes time to do the work. I know people who think it’s a few minutes a day for the classes.
