Where to go to pay for an extra test in Study.com? - Pelican - 01-17-2018

I read that in Study.com, you can take 2 tests in one month, or pay $70 extra to take an extra test. I've finished two proctored tests, and want to quickly finish a third, but I can't find anywhere to add the extra test. When I go to the test page, it just tells me I can't take any more tests this month.

That's true, you can take it if you're a paying member. Unfortunately, you're not authorized to do so on the scholarship.
If you know you're going to be taking more courses, pay for it through an additional account. That's the only way.
So, pay $199/month for two more exams, and then pay $70/extra for a third, or subsequent exam.
You need to ask yourself, how many courses/exams are you going to be taking with them...

Oh, I am on a scholarship so that must be why. I wish I could take the test earlier, as I just finished the course, and worry I will forget much.

You can go back through it if you want, or take the practice final before the for-credit-final.

I don't know if it still works, but I thought there were members here who created a second account? I'd probably try that. Besides the scholarship, the only way I know of to save money on Study is if you pay for a full year in one shot, which most people don't do. They offer 25% off (you have to join homeschool buyers coop, but that's free) https://www.homeschoolbuyersco-op.org/college-accelerator-study.com/?source=10490

Wow, I am a homeschooler and I've gone to that site quite often and never noticed that discount, thank you!

I paid for a second account concurrently with the scholarship account. It was no problem with ACE. I think I just had to use a different email address? Don't remember the specifics. I even got a five day free trial and was able to finish the two exams on the scholarship account, two exams on the second account and one extra exam all in one month. Totally worth it to finish those before I started my capstone.
