* Overall educational experience
Academic rigor, intensity, resources, etc. |
The workload was similar to regular college work. The grading was much different, however. We had one grade (an exam) for our entire course grade! No time to figure out what the prof is looking for and adjust to it in order to get an A, etc. |
