Which classes are more comprehensive?
#1
Which classes are more comprehensive? Study.com or UMPI? Study courses are taking me a week to finish, I take notes on everything then review before the exams. Are UMPI classes similar?

The format of courses makes them difficult to compare. Study.com courses are heavily weighted to the quizzes and final, so I optimized by ensuring 100% on all the quizzes as quickly as possible, and that always taught me enough to do well on the final. For UMPI, the milestone writing assignments and the final paper/project are closely tied to the material, which requires a more complete understanding. That is all to say that the strategy you're implementing for Study.com courses should be effective for UMPI. However, you may want to move a bit faster than a week per course if you want to complete ten courses in a single 8-week session.

I’m aiming for one every 5.6 days. Last half of the 6th day I study for the exam and take it the 7th day. Mind you this is also in addition to doing the assignments.

At UMPI, you are graded based on assignments. You first submit a draft, after which the professor provides a preliminary grade along with suggestions for improvement. You then make the necessary changes and submit the final paper.

As long as you are good at following directions, understanding rubrics, and double-checking your work, it’s easy to achieve Latin honors such as Summa Cum Laude or Magna Cum Laude at UMPI.
