SDC 5 limit doable? - Edriveless - 06-10-2020
To maximize credits to transfer, can one take 5 exams if you’re paying for the $199 plan? Are there easy 5 classes to maximize the money in spending?
I do need a business communication course filled but I’m jfk sure if SDC is easy or if I can test out on it?
How long also do they get back when you take the proctored exam to get your transcript sent to TESU, is it really two weeks?

If you don't feel like 5 classes are doable in 1 month, you can sign-up for a cheaper plan for 1 month, learn stuff, and than for the 2nd month upgrade to $199 plan.

SDC will allow you to take 5 exams in one month. I've taken as many as 6 in one month without issue. Each exam after the first two is $70. As for which courses are easy, the answer is subjective based on how well you already know a subject and what you need for your AOS.
You pretty much know instantly if you passed or not and SDC has been pretty good at grading and awarding credit in two weeks or less to make it official.

LL courses and ones that don't have assignments are usually graded instantly: the rest will take time to get your grade.

It will depend on how much time you can put in before feeling burnout. Everyone is different and has different obligations, but many people could handle 5 if they were motivated to.

After the proctored exam it says they review the footage and then it takes 2 weeks to hear back? How long will that take to get on a transcript to send Thomas Edison the discount?
Do they use ProctorU don't they where it is live or viewed by Study.com staff?

They use RPNow (Software Secure) and record you taking the test to review later.
