Anyone take Study.com CS302 (System Analysis) lately?

My son took this class, I was a little upset with him that he scored so bad on the final. Don't remember maybe high 40's. He received 70 plus on the practice final.
His first submission for the assignment he got 22/100. I was upset again until I looked at the assignment. The only way I could figure out how he could do it was by making a bunch of stuff up. It is not well explained. Finally, after his 3rd submission he just barely passed with 70% in the whole class.
The only thing I can suggest is to ask questions directly to the grader. I don't know if you can find out who it is ahead of time or not, but maybe after your first submission. Maybe with luck, you can pass the 1st time. It was the same person grading every time.

Ouch. Well, the practice exams didn't really match well against the actual final exam so that doesn't surprise me. I scored a 97 on the practice exam and ended up in the low 80s on the proctored final. I'm normally a great exam taker and this is the lowest exam score I've received out of all my study.com courses so far. I'm sure I'd have done better if I could have better understood the questions. The course content and exams for this course need improving for sure.

I'm planning to send a note to Study.com to see if I can get more detail on how they expect the final papers to be done but I don't know if that will be useful. I usually get better results by asking folks on this forum.
