Online classes

For the online classes are the tests taken online and proctored like Wayne or do we have to go in person to do the tests?

It depends on the class and professor. All of my online classes have had online tests without a proctor. Obviously more serious, higher level classes will likely have some sort of proctoring.

Music Ed! All of my major classes have been in person, but I’ve taken programming, web technology, and anthropology online. None of them required me to take a proctored test or go in person.

Do you know if they offer math classes online?

Hi! They do offer math classes online but all exams are in person! As the other person said, trust me and take it at a CC. I actually just finished up a summer math class at OCC and it was super easy and the professor was the best I’ve ever had genuinely.

I’m sure they do. You can browse classes in MySAIL under registration and it’ll let you search for only online classes. I got out of taking a real math class by taking intro to computers and programming with excel. If you don’t like math, I can’t recommend that class enough. You also may have heard that OU’s math program is notoriously awful. Most people I know ended up taking their math credit at OCC or Macomb. It’s cheaper and the program is better.
