Open Colleges were good educators and patient too. Considerate of extension applications due to personal circumstances which bounce up. Open Colleges give you a second chance if you don't do well in a quiz. Like any higher education studies, one cannot skip on all the reading material - Open Colleges resources were comprehensive. The only negative i found, were more so the IT issues e.g. templates were uncompromising or the student needs to be at an advanced level of Microsoft suites - Word and Excel. Following an assignment, the Assessors were great in pointing out insufficient information or tips/questions which provided a better understanding of the formula or interpretation or calculation.
