    It's like comparing a 3some to jerking off with 3 hands, in theory you get the same after effect, but the journey on the way isnt the same.

    DV's term paper title: "lmao"

  10. #10

    DV I hate online classes just because you have to push yourself all on your own, also math and stuff can be complicated online because text isn't as versatile to type as is writing on paper.
    Also I see the computer as fun time, and doing schoolwork on my PC is tough for me because i'm distracted by FFXI sites and freaking BG forums!
    I concentrate better in my real school classes than my online classes.
    I remember you telling me on TS that you were considering it because it was an accelerated course. They have those in real classes i'm sure, just gotta find them ;-;

    Dv online class' are good if you have a strong understanding of the material and don't think you will need someone there to answer a question right away. I took a few online class' while I was on deployment (basic electives math, english, intro to psychology) Phoenix university was nice because I would recieve CD's via mail that had my course work and lectures on them. Only problem I had was when I had a question I had to email the instructor. Then wait for his reply in turn grinding my work to a halt. As others said though, if you have the time and $ going to class is the best. Nothing will replace the real time interaction with a teacher. Got a question, raise your hand. Online you got a question wait for an email.

    How does that even apply here? No one's making a hypocritical, sweeping statement about DV's personal life that we know nothing about but mocking the horrendous English skill he chooses to display in every post he makes.

    ehh.. I'm used to it, I was homeschooled up until 10th grade, then started gonig to college in 11th grade for dual enrollment. It was mostly just me doing my own work, none of my friends could really help me because we were never doing the same work. The only help I really had was my mom, but she can only help so much, one of those types of moms that makes me learn on my own and doesn't baby me

    Endo is right about online classes, you do need to know basic knowledge about them most of the time.

    You should know what classes you are taking and know alot about the subject before you can really say your prepared for online classes. I belive that you should goto the college instead because as a few other stated you don't get your awnser right away also you have to push yourself. There is no one watching you making sure you don't go on FFXI or browse forums such as these. In a class you still have to push yourself but you don't have the distraction of a computer/video game console sitting in front of you that you can just turn on and play. Thats my input and its from experience as well. I couldn't do home schooling because I had all of this technology in front of me.

    SAY IT AND PROVE THEM WRONG
