The course was informative, but needs to be looked over due to several typographical errors and some questions are said to be correct but when figuring them out the way taught does not come out correctly. Over all good.

This course was harder than I expected it to be. You must do the assignments in the book to pass the test. The quizzes were hard.
It was great once I understood the problems

This math course was very challenging for me because I dont like math, but other than that Straighterline did an awsome job.
loved that i can work on my on time!
This course was very good. I didn't have a textbook, but I made it though the course.
Excellent course. Just read the assigned reading (while doing the work given in the assigned reading). Next, go over the multimedia slide "lessons" and practice. Then do the graded quizzes. Couldn't be easier!

Generally good course overall. Some of the lessons bounced around the order of the book, which seemed unnecessary and confusing. The course lessons were helpful; but did not go into as much depth as the text. It would have been nice to see explanations via the lesson of the content that was more difficult.
This course did a very nice job of covering all the basics of College Algebra. The lesson slideshows were extremely helpful and easy to understand.

I wish they would have made it clear that the book is the main source of the information. I did three sections just using the videos. Some of the stats on the test did not match what was in the book. Overall the class was just reading the text book and taking tests.
Really enjoy the self pace.
Great for those trying to advance quickly.
I like the self-motivation factor, however I would've liked additional help reviewing for the exams. I found a few of the questions were more in depth conceptual interpretations of basic facts discussed in the topic presentations.
I liked that I could finish the class as quickly as I was comfortable with, and take the quizes and exams on my own time when I felt ready
