Go"Poor Product Not Worth the Cost"
WRITER'S OPINIONS BASED ON PARTICIPATION AS STUDENT IN ONLINE CURRICULUM OFFERED BY CONCORD LAW SCHOOL, 2006-2007. Online curriculum is aging and poorly maintained. Video lectures and reading assignments are no longer in synch with each other. Grading of essays is inconsistent and often contradicts classroom instruction and/or text reading. Administration not responsive to student concerns. Preoccupation with "pace" of study undermines ability of EJD (non-Bar) students to properly study, outline and review material. Ultimately, Concord delivers a Kaplan-signature-style course on how to take tests, with very little attention to understanding concepts or developing law-based reasoning skills. Although cost is the same, academic support for JD track and their novel "Executive JD" (EJD) non-Bar track is very different: EJD receives indifferent attention from online chat-instructors and from administration. Altogether, regret monies invested; could have bought texts and proceeded independently at my own pace, as I am in any case doing now.
