Taking Psych 1XX3 at Mac in the summer vs Athabasca
I have to take Psych 1XX3 this summer and I was just wondering if taking it at Mac or doing it online at Athabasca would be more beneficial for me.
As far as I've heard, you don't get a grade for a course completed at Athabasca and it's essentially pass/fail (ie it doesn't count towards your GPA). But I've taken a neuroscience course in 2nd year and I understand that Psych 1XX3 is based heavily on the biology portion of neuroscience, so the course should be relatively easy given my background.
Is there anyone who has taken Psych 1XX3 either in the summer at Mac or the equivalent course at Athabasca who can give me some input about the difficulty of the course in either case? Is it worth doing it at Mac and taking the train 2.5 hours twice a week to (hopefully) get a really good grade and have it count towards my cumulative GPA?
I'm also planning on working this summer and Psych 1XX3 is offered at 9:30 am at Mac in the summer which could be difficult to work around.
I know there's no simple yes/no answer but any input given some experience with this course, doing summer school at Mac or taking online courses at Athabasca is greatly appreciated!
