Back to the discussion of "testing out" versus "learning a lot" with all of those courses we talk about here. Actually, he said that he learned a good bit with this strategy while minimizing unnecessary busywork. He found History of Technology especially fun and informative. For the ones that he scored over 65% without studying, one can argue that he already knows a lot about those topics and took Shmoop like a cheap way of testing out. Not much different from taking a CLEP exam cold, imo.
