Maybe it would be cheaper to learn from old OU course material or from textbooks?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7897235423812277683.post-83059437950411035272021-10-11T14:34:19.657+01:002021-10-11T14:34:19.657+01:00Remember President Kennedy!

That makes a big difference and I think I will now embark on Saylor in the expectation that the final exams are forthcoming. Math is not the kind of subject that changes much anyway, at least not at the level I'll be studying at!alex campbellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02133332895348128950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7897235423812277683.post-68313755593933504022015-09-18T18:12:41.446+01:002015-09-18T18:12:41.446+01:00Yeah its a real pity on the other hand at least th...Yeah its a real pity on the other hand at least they are keeping the material open who knows they might be persuaded to change their minds or someone else might take over <br />Chris Fhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03530660309554429226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7897235423812277683.post-79447072754644707002015-09-17T10:51:28.769+01:002015-09-17T10:51:28.769+01:00Hi Chris, I just stumbled across Saylor today.

I had a scan through the material and could tell right away that it was top notch quality. I was so disappointed when it dawned on me that Saylor no longer supports the full math major. So looks like I'll have to trundle back to the OU :-(alex campbellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02133332895348128950noreply@blogger.com
