I'm not giving up on Shmoop yet! I'm only in the middle of Bible and it's ok so far (but I do have a basis of knowledge). It just feels like my basis of knowledge isn't as helpful as I assumed it would be because of their way of presenting and testing. So it's shaken my confidence a little.
I think I will learn a lot about their method by the time I'm done and will hopefully be successful in more courses. I'm giving it a month and will reassess after that.
Good luck! I will probably practice with a couple more LL courses before I do a UL course.
BALS is a good backup if there's a problem doing Shmoop, because it would be a good deal cheaper.
