Well, I think I'll just skip the discrete math. I'll be required to take a few RA classes anyways... so let Discrete Math be one of RA courses at my university. Also, my current university requires 200-level Discrete Math so it could be that study.com's 100-level Discrete Math may not transfer.

There is no reason for their limits, not for $199 per month.
I am only testing 1 month at $60 but pretty sure I will take all the courses elsewhere because it is an odd platform.

If you set up a new account, their T&C state that they might revoke any and all credits that you've earned from them. So, even if nomaduser passes, they might not get credit. I wouldn't risk it. Do more studying and take the exam when you're more sure of being able to get a good score.
Here are some quizzes/exams to practice with:

https://www.math.utah.edu/~ciubo/2200/

You have 3 tries to take the exam. If you've used 1, you've got 2 more. You can do this, nomaduser!

He said he already failed the exam.
I already alerted my credit card to stop all further payments to study.com.They won't get one more cent.
Not being able to retake a course is a deal breaker. My money, my choice, they don't even explain these limits. It is too shady.

Yeah, they should let me retake the course from start after I fail the exams. Too bad they don't allow this.
I'm not even sure if their Discrete Math course will transfer. Their Discrete Math is 100-level but most of online computer science degree courses require 200+ level Discrete Math so maybe it's best to take Discrete Math through online degree programs.

You get to retake the exam twice. It's not just once and you fail forever. With more study, the course can be passed.

If for some reason you're not successful on your first attempt to pass a proctored exam, you can retake it again in 3 days. The College Accelerator Edition includes 5 exams per billing cycle. You can also purchase additional exams to take within that time period.
Each exam can be taken a total of 3 times.

The first 2 are free. If you take 5 in one month, the total that you get charged is $410.
Ok the following wasn't clear as the last phrase indicates more than 5:

Also you said exam can be taken twice.
Also the word 'includes' should mean it is included in $199 price instead they start charging $70 on the third one (correct me if I am wrong)
