I was taking a course in Motorcycle repair from Penn Foster. The material they sent is a joke. Anyone who can read can pass their test. It is not going to make you a mechanic! I was bound to finish the course but I came upon hard times financially and had to drop out. I have a Master's degree in Theology so I am very familiar to schools. When you can't aford it you have to drop out. Always hoping to finish at a later date. Penn Foster turned me over to a collection agency for the balance of my course materials and such that I never even received...Why do they want my money for courses I never even ordered!!!!?? Penn Foster is a diploma mill not a school. Be Ware! This so called school will rip you off!!!!

You're right. Penn Foster's material is pathetic. It's reading and multiple choice with no experience. I local community college would be much better. In addition, if you cancel during the tiny 7 day window, they will still go after you with a collection agency to collect the money in full. Stay away from them and look for a real school.
