Testing on Sophia - elledee2020 - 01-21-2021

Are there any retakes allowed?  Either for Milestones per unit or the final Milestone?  Or if you don't pass the course, can you retake it?  Just wondering how it would work if I tried my hand at a milestone in a class I know a lot about already, but didn't apparently know enough to have attempted it without going through the course.  Anyone done this?

Thanks

We allow one (1) retake per Challenge and one (1) retake per Milestone. You will be prompted to contact the Sophia Learning Coach team if you fail an assessment in the course.

Thank you!  I don't know why I couldn't find that on the site.  (I did look!)

A reminder that the milestones are open book! If you take the practice milestones and use those to study then it's easy to at least pass Sophia milestones. Getting a GOOD score is something different entirely.

So you have found that the final milestone is an accurate representation of the ones along the way?

For the most part, yes. I think Principles of Finance and Statistics were both challenging (for different reasons) but the Milestones were still generally representative of the whole course.
