******** is it.

Have you seen the prices they charge now?

£1250 for a 30 point module.

Wow - I was fortunate to do my second degree (1991-96) at West London
Institute - Brunel as a PT mature student. Cost £50 per module
(x18=£900). How many OU modules make a degree?

IIRC, when I did it (OU), it was 120 points. Some modules were 15
points, the majority ( a years study) were 30 points. Cost around
£150/yr then ~1999.
Some were rather more expensive, anything that required course materials
and experimentation (chemistry?) were ridiculously expensive then.
Popular ones like maths were the cheapest, one tutorial a week where 20+
people attended, you were given a sheaf of papers, and left to get on
with it yourself.
