Whether it's easy or not depends completely on you.

You should be able to take a class online if:

- You are very knowledgable, familar, and comfortable with that subject
- You can learn and understand things on your own
- You work well by yourself
- You pace yourself and get things done on time
- Responsible and organized

However, it's always easier to actually be in class and here the lectures, be able to ask your professor questions, and get their notes.

About the tests... I'm not sure if this is how they do it where you are or even in college but the tests are generally harder than what they would be in a class AND each question is timed.

For example, here if you take ytour permit test online each question is 60 seconds and if you dont answer within that time limit too bad for you.

I hope I heped a little!

I'm sure there is someone you can contact at that campus for more information on virtual education.

Okay first of all, taking online college classes is MUCH harder than taking them on campus because you dont get notes and help from professors and your basicly doing it on your own.

And if you took exams and tests online.. what would stop you from cheating? Seriously, your not going to learn anything if you cheat, you know? They tell you not to do that in school for a reason.. and I guess they trust you, since your payings thousands of dollars to take their classes, and they figured you want to get your moneys worth out of it.
