With my son trying to complete that upper level Bus.309 course in 3 days, we just needed to know how much work was required to cross the finish line. With only 70% required after the quizzes and final, not much needs to be completed of the 3 assignments.
His lowest grade on anything, including CLEP and DSST exams, has been a B score, and straight A's for courses he's taken. Plus, I doubt that he will go for a graduate degree in business, he is very happy consulting in the legal industry.
He is a perfectionist so this is a time to learn when good is good enough to get you to the finish line.
He's never skipped an assignment in any course he has taken, so there is learning to be okay with Study.com's method and playing the percentages. Sometimes there is more to learn from a course beyond the course material.
Thank you everyone for your help.
Marie

Is Computer Architecture an example of such classes? Referring to 71% part.

Just to let readers know, the Study.com equivalency already shows the new evaluation for Business 309: Digital Marketing & Advertising, it's going to be transferring in as MKT-2410 Digital Marketing and Advertising. For those who completed it before Nov 1, you may want to email them to make sure it comes in as UL credit, not sure when this page was updated or when their changes were made, it may have been before SDC's class getting downgraded to lower level by ACE.
