Have any of you taken advantage of the online courses rule changing? Where did you take online courses? How did you find the experience? Would you do so again?

Online courses are generally better for those who can manage deadlines themselves and are self-motivated. I did better in most of my online courses, mainly because I could work on material at my own paced. I also found the tests to be easier than in class courses because you were limited to being tested on material given to you. Either online, or on a package. There were no "when we discussed this in lecture...." type questions for example. I took both courses at Guelph. I took 5 online courses in total during my undergrad and enjoyed each one.

I agree with oncovet; online courses are better for those who are self-motivated, I enjoyed them because I could work ahead or put off work depending on my other classes. Contrary to oncovet's experiences though, I don't like online courses because they test on the material given, which is usually online class notes AS WELL AS chapter readings in the textbook. I find in lecture, I can get a better sense of what's important to know for exams based on what is focused on in lecture, whereas online, I felt overwhelmed because I didn't know where to focus my studying and no one can memorize a whole textbook. Plus I found that the textbook readings always took a long time to get through so that took up a lot of my time.

Yeah it is true that online courses are best for the self-motivated people. I am also going to take LSAT quite soon and would like to join one of the most popular LSAT online courses. Actually I have some time restrictions for physical classes so decided to go for the online ones as they can be accessed from anywhere.
