I am still in the process of Penn Foster's Business Statistics course- waiting on the results of my proctored final exam. Being extremely math-phobic, and having taken College Algebra some 20 years ago, I found myself up against a proverbial wall with the Stats requirement for my General Business degree with 9 credits to completion. Penn Foster seemed the best way out for me. The course itself was very instructional, and I did very well on the 3 unproctored and untimed exams . However, the 1 hour timed proctored exam was terrifying for me! In fact, I was such a nervous wreck, I was physically sick for 2 days afterwards. This exam was not only timed, but was also not multiple choice. I'm not sure if I passed it or not, but I am confident that I will be able to pass the re-take if need be. Having said all that, I do not feel that I could not have fulfilled the statistics requirement any better way- and it was a very inexpensive course as well. If worse comes to worse and I do not pass the re-take exam, I'm pretty confident that the learning I recieved would probably suffice to get me through the DSST Statistics exam. So... I think it was very worthwhile in getting me to where I need to be. Additionally, I recieved very good support from the school with all of my questions.
