Laura Crum Hey all, I saw this article about something called FlashTrack classes and I wonder if that is something that people will be interested in, or if a reliable internet connection is such a given that it's not really so important.

Hi all! Yesterday, my husband and I were looking online for a book for his next distance education class. I've bought my books online for years because it is so much cheaper! Most of the time, I've gone through Amazon.com. The trick, though, is to make sure you are getting the correct book! A few times we've ordered... it and the wrong book comes! Are there ways you make sure you have the right materials or websites you think are better than others? Share your tips with me!Read More

Bill - try the link again. It seems to be working now.

Basil - I can see what you mean. Do you think a teacher in a traditional classroom would be more willing to give an extension on assignments than a distance education teacher?

Deb Lombard Here's an interesting resource for international students. If you need to calculate your GPA in the US grading system, there is a website calculator to help you. It's not free, but you can enter to win a free trial use. If trying to calculate your GPA hurts your head, this site might help you understand how to do it.http://www.wes.org/students/igpacalc.asp

Knowing your GPA is the simplest way to learn how you compare to others when you apply to study in the United States. Colleges and universities want to evaluate your grades based on the 4.0 GPA scale.
