Keep in mind that I took my time because it was open book. I also didn't spend the 8 hours all at once. I did that over 3 days. I know other people didn't spend anywhere near as long on it as I did. That was 1 class. That was the only class I've had an exam so far.

You have to make progress and login at least once every 21 days or you're kicked out. There are no specific set breaks in CBE programs. You can take breaks, but you have to remember to login and make some progress every few weeks. I'm seeing lots of people not do this on social media and they freak out because they are on the verge of being kicked out.
That's a good point. It's not 100% flexible, more like 95%. WGU students must log in and complete minimal activity every so often. This means they can't take a three-month vacation and never think about school, but it can be as simple as clicking through a few web pages, not any actual work. These threads have some more info:
