big_g Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 Doesn't really woth. The OU has always had the biggest drop-out rate of all. And also quite a few success stories. I got my degree with them. Studied from home, worked, paid for it all myself. Took blummin' ages (8 years) and it was hard but I feel worth it. To Ron (the OP), what course are you looking at? there was a useful site on the BBC's Click programme for free access to PDF's of textbooks bookboon.com it might be useful Nice site - just looked at it now - wish I'd known about that earlier.
