Principles of Finance for TESU BSBA
#1
What is the quicker route if you had to guess, Penn Foster or Study.com? I know the Penn Foster course doesn't have webinars like the Strategic Management did, but just looking to see how fast people have competed each for a comparison. I also read that PF didn't have a proctors final is this also true?

Just did principles of Finance on Study.com took about a week and a half but that was with other stuff going on.

And I see where the final was proctored? I've never taken a study.com class is it similar to SL?

It's up to you to decide on "price" or "time", as it's going to depend on what you really want.
Principles of Finance (Penn Foster Financial Management) was a quick 2 day course for me.
Pricing for it is $299 now; I paid $237 for the course and it's not proctored, it's very easy.
I am planning on taking only Upper Level credits from Study.com or hard to find ones.

Personally, I haven't taken a course from Study.com yet, but I like their "newer system".
Study.com is easy as well and very competitively priced. However, it's lengthier at $199.
Study.com uses Secure Software as a recording/proctoring service. It's different than SL.
Take your time and see which one looks to be what you need and decide from that...

Just want to make sure the OP knows that price is for 2 courses or 6 credits. Plus you can now add on additional courses for only $70 while subscribed for the month. $270 is a great price for 9 credits and doing 3 courses in a month on Study.com is very doable. I am currently attempting 4 courses per month.

Additionally, the proctored exams at Study.com don't need to be scheduled ahead of time as with SL since it's proctored by an automated system which is reviewed at a later date. You can just click the button and take the final at any point you are ready - it makes it a bit easier in terms of scheduling than SL sometimes is.
