Im currently studying a Diploma of Marketing through OTEN and im just wondering how many others are studying through distance education/from home?

Who are you studying through?

How are you going with disciplining yourself to do the work?

Are you getting through it as you thought you would?

Do you set a time limit for yourself to complete your assignments or just do them when you get time?

I would love to hear from other people and how they are managing with this form of studying. :D

I am doing a marketing degree through OTEN (Monash).

I deferred when I got pregnant because my brain wasn't working.

I have found it to be excellent, resources are good, assignments are clear and there are discussion boards etc to help you.

I do my assignments in stages, with the last minute rush of course. You get them back quickly with constructive comments for the most part.

My marks have been slightly lower than I would expect if I went to lectures, but its not hard to pass.

Good luck
