Its been 10+ years or so but I took some electives through there. They were the easiest grades I ever received. My GPA at Athabasca vs. Uof C was .9 higher with putting in 70% of the effort.
As an example, I took the equivalent of Stats 213/17 or 313/17 (can't remember which one off hand) and the day of the final exam, I had horrible strep throat. I felt like I was going to die but dragged my ass in to write the exam. I was basically delusional/comatose for the duration of the test. On top of this, math is hardly a forte for me. At the end of test I drove straight to the Dr.'s office and had a +40C fever.
To make a long story short, I was floored to receive my 88% grade on the final.
