I've been studying @ study.com bus comm to take corporate comm at saylor, but it seems like the courses don't align. I see a lot of different things on the saylor practice exams that I don't see on study.com quizzes and vice versa
Do they align?

I don't think Study.com was ever trying to align with Saylor. The Study.com course isn't even 3cr, it's only 1cr.
Study.com used to align with CLEP, DSST & UExcel. Many exams will still align, but some won't. I imagine that since they're now offering credit themselves, they won't try to align at all when the testing services change their exams, and eventually nothing will align perfectly.

Doubt it. On the other hand, Saylor's Corporate Communication practice quizzes and final exam align very well with the proctored final exam. You may be able to bypass going through all the resources and going through every unit like I did by just studying the quizzes/practice final.
I took and reviewed the practice quizzes/practice final and then looked up some terms and did some brief skimming of the course textbook. In all I spent ~4 hours studying, took the final proctored exam and passed.

Does the Corporate Communications from Saylor fulfill the Business Communications slot in the BSBA GM core? It comes in as either COM-373, MAN-373, or HRM-373 according to the website, correct?
After looking at both websites again, I'm going to say yes and wait for someone to correct me...

Yes, it comes in as MAN-373, and will go into your core. And, if you take Business Comm from SL, then it comes in as COM-300 and can go in your AOS. It's like 2-for-1 in terms of studying. Not sure why they do it this way, but can't hurt to take advantage of it!
