Straighterline -- and vs. Study.com?
#14
IMHO, it depends on your learning style, AND your own personal interest in learning the material for yourself vs. just passing the exams. I've learned a TON from SL classes; they're what gave me a strong foundation in business concepts. I used to take my time; go over the lessons, read the textbook, take notes, etc. Now I just take the exams and look up answers in the book as I go. Same types of courses; different approaches. One takes more time, one takes less, both get you the pass.

For SC, I feel like I get the same out of the course regardless of if I'm "trying" or not, BUT I've only been doing them in my "speed" mindset so I can't say for sure if I would get more out of it slowing down. Maybe if I took the practice chapter exams more? I dunno.

But, like most things in life, you get what you *want* out of courses. If you want to learn, you'll learn. If you don't care as much, then you're probably not going to gain as much.
