Compare this to their normal $100 a month plus $50 a course fee (most courses). If you spent a year doing 10 courses then it would be $1200 + $500 = $1700.
However, if you are able to work your way through a course in 3 weeks then 10 courses would take you 30 weeks or about 7 months. This works out to $700 + $500 = $1200. I believe most people should be able to do a course in 3 weeks. I've been able to get several courses done in as little as a week each (and I'm no genius). I believe I could get through 10 courses in as little as 3 or 4 months without too much trouble, and that would only be $800 to $900 total.
BTW, I actually bought their Freshman Year back in December when it was only $1,000. However, I didn't start doing them until around June, and I now have 3 courses left. I really like SL for its convenience, whereas my CLEP testing center is inconvenient as it is only open on Saturdays once a month.
