Comparative analysis of Study.Com & Straighterline
#8
SL doesn't have nearly the number of courses that Study.com has (50+ vs 170+). Also, Study.com has a TON of UL courses that SL doesn't have (I think they have 1 at this point).

I personally prefer the shorter lessons/quiz style of Study.com over the chapter/exam style of SL. It kind of fits into my life better, where I can take some courses here and there rather than a big chunk of time to do a whole chapter at once.

Although I didn't watch the videos, I also think that many more people benefit from those; SL doesn't really have that option.

Also, I've heard (no firsthand experience) that you can do Study.com on the go - there's an app. No such luck for SL.

Last but not least, if you're going to do a lot of courses, then Study.com is THE way to go. Many courses overlap each other in some way, making subsequent courses shorter. They also have pretests available for many courses, so you can shorten the path that way as well.

Just some of the way Study.com is superior in my opinion (and yes I work there now, but I haven't for long, and I was a fan before I started there - and wasn't a huge fan of SL back then either).
