Provider: StraighterLine
Course: Accounting I
Course content: The material is presented in a usual SL format, which is just a slideshow. One lesson is approximately 30 slides including some quizzes. Mostly no videos, and if there are any they are irrelevant, I skipped most of them. They provide a book, it is helpful to the extent.
Final exam format: Proctored exam with ProctorU (not a fan tbh, showing the room felt a bit invasive, but I get it). The exam is 200 points out of 1000, so I didn't need to get a high score, so I just tried to finish it quickly. It was 40 questions.
Final exam content vs course content/practice exams: No questions were in the quizzes within lessons but similar or even the same questions were on previous exams. However the questions themselves were not the best, to understand some of them I needed to read them a couple times, they were not phrased very well.
Time taken on course: Took me about a week to complete
Familiarity with subject before course: I am not familiar at all, but honestly if you passed all the previous exams with 90% and higher you do not need to do anything for the final at all.
Pitfalls, high points, things others should know: Just google every question pretty much or look it up in the book, this way a final will be a breeze.
1-10 Difficulty level:Like a 2, but only because you don't need to score on the final exam.
