Thanks for the responses. I'm almost finished the personal finance course, and then i hope to I take an accounting course - upper level, so that will be amazing for me.
I will then have 4 more courses so psychology or history is what I'll be checking out next. It's good to know that they might overlap, so it's best if I stick to one or the other.
This thread was not meant to be a review, but I was just so pleasantly surprised by this first course! I have seen mixed reviews for study.com courses so I was not sure what to expect but so far I really liked it. I like the fact that the lessons are broken down into bite size pieces, and that really fits well into my busy life, nd I like that there are so many options to learn the material, that you are sure to find a fit for your learning style - visual, auditory, and the quizzes work well if you are a hands on learner. Many of the lessons I just skimmed and went straight to the quiz, but if I felt a little shaky about the material, the videos were all excellent, clear and well narrated.
I did not feel the material was too easy for a college course. The videos explain things clearly, but the quiz questions seemed college level to me, and I had quite a bit experience taking tests in the last two years. The experience felt like being in a real classroom, just faster and more convenient.
I did not take the test yet, so I may still change my tune , but so far I really like study!
