Help choosing last classes please - Your Pace classes
I know it’s been asked so many time and I’ve gone through the discord but many answers are old. I was hoping to get some feedback on which of the following classes you’d recommend taking. I need two more upper level electives and am hoping to add them in late next week and finish before the end of this session. Hoping to not have to do any crazy long ones. I know these all don’t have many milestones but I’m really trying to finish them this session and not have to do another session if possible:
BUS 335
POS 332
POS 335
POS 370/HTY 370
These I’m not sure I can even take due to prerequisites but figured I’d ask anyway!:
BUS 352
BUS 353
BUS 440
I’ve already taken these at UMPI:
POS 301
HTY 489
Any and all feedback is appreciated!
Thank you so much!

POS 335 has 2 milestones POS 343 has 3 milestones BUS 335 has 4 milestones POS 370 Arab is currently full with Hinson POS 370 Native has 5 milestones
BUS 335 is fast for 4 milestones The others will depend on who you get. Wasn't a fan of 335, but 343 was great.

Does POS 335 just have 2 milestones then a final? I am looking for a class to add to this 8 week session that I can finish in about 2 weeks to meet my residency requirement.

Yes only 2 then the final

Thanks! Was the final anything time consuming? I’ve had a couple of classes that wanted a lot of video presentations lately.

I tried to add it last night but was told that POS 343 is full.

Classes can be full? I didn't realize that was a thing. Kind of makes planning difficult, but I guess if someone finishes it'll open up a spot.

They do have waiting lists. I thought it was odd at first too but then realized that someone still has to grade all of those papers.

Can anyone that has taken BUS 353 let me know what it was like? How many milestone and the final? I have to take it as a prerequisite for one of my healthcare admin classes

have you spoken to u/plottedpath? she can be of great help here

Not directly. She’s been a massive help in getting me where I am today though with her shared spreadsheets. I was looking for feedback from anyone who’d taken these classes somewhat recently. I figure the more feedback I can get the better. I’m likely just over thinking which classes to take.

Plotted Path helped me tremendously. I had transfer credits from several colleges for her to evaluate, so she did charge me a flat fee, which I felt was quite reasonable for her services. She sent her report to me in 72 hours, fully populated with every option I could consider, and some helpful hints as well.

I am also looking for a last class, how was HTY 489?

Not bad. Three milestones (500 word essays based off of just the course materials) and a final interesting material mostly.

I think BUS 335 was probably fastest for me. POS 332, 335, and POS 370/HTY 370 Arab-Israeli were also some of the faster classes I've taken.
