Hi everyone...
Just wondering with Study.com's scoring system, does it make sense to take the final exam before doing the assignments, that way you know how many assignments you actually need to turn in?

I always did the final as soon as I could after completing all the quizzes for retention reasons. Then I would do the project.

You need to turn in all assignments, even if one is just a few sentences.

This is exactly how I did mine, exam after the quizzes so I was able to retain the information.

I would recommend more just to be on the extra safe side, of course if you already have a passing grade, you can do whatever you want.

Seems like there is a lot of consensus that most of us do exam first then assignment. This is true for me on all courses except one so far, but I don't think it matters a ton either way. Most of the assignments are short/easy, you can resubmit them if you need. If the assignment is going to take a while, I'd either take the test first or I'd take practice tests every few days until exam time. Right now I have another one I'm close to through the course content on already, but I have 18 days until my next month of subscription so no unlocked exams yet. I'll probably do the project in the interim, and just do some practice tests to keep up on the material.
