How is credit earned through Study.com?  Would I transfer the credits to my ACE transcripts or sent them directly to TESU?  How have you found Study.com in terms of difficulty?  I really struggled with Western Civ and Statistics with Straighterline and Analyzing Interpreting Lit with CLEP.  Just curious how Study.com compares?

the easiest thing is to transfer them to ACE. Some of their courses are not ACE-approved & Study.com will send the transcripts to TESU or whatever for those

My experience has been that Study.com has been better than Straighterline at presenting the material & focusing on what matters. I haven't taken the ones you just named from Straighterline but I did take American History 2 from both and Study.com's version is head and shoulders above Straighterline's on that course

God! Don't get me started with Stats, I took ALEKS Stats and didn't get far.  I took Straighterline Intro to Stats and had a 65%, I finally finished Business Stats with a 85% at Straighterline and recommended it ever since.  Study.com is basically, get 100% on quizzes, review practice exams a couple of times, and if you're at 80% or higher, then try the proctored final exam.

Study.com courses have two formats, video or transcript.  The video is on top of the page and transcripts right underneath it.
The courses are either 33% for quizzes, 66% for final exam OR 33% for quizzes, 33% for assignments/projects, 33% for final.
Just like any other course provider for ACE/NCCRS, the passing grade is 70%+ for the course.  It's easier than just one exam.

To get course credits, they are either ACE or NCCRS recommended for credit.  You can do the same thing with their ACE/NCCRS courses, you have the option for Excelsior or TESU (not COSC at this time), to receive transfer directly from Study.com - Link: https://app.smartsheet.com/b/form/b90253...bd813935c1
