amazing
by Jonathan S. on March 20, 2023
This was a good class to learn or refresh about Business law. It was a bit challenging.
by Katelyn S. on March 20, 2023
Great course easy to follow along with and the material is relevant
by Adam G. on March 20, 2023
Very hard to follow the reading. The text that is provided sounds like something to be read in law school. Very hard to follow.
by Juan L. on March 20, 2023
I loved this course because it was relly entertaining, and I loved how the lessons demonstrated many perspectives on religions.
by Steven S. on March 20, 2023
Always loved algebra! A good place to start your math journey.
by Bradley F. on March 20, 2023
I enjoyed the writing prompts and information taught through each lesson and milestones but I do feel as though the grading criteria is quite steep for an introductory course. Graders are incredibly detailed and strict to adhere to the rubric.
