MNomadic, I always recommend for Study.com to take multiple courses a month (like 4-5), $200/2 exams, and $70/extra exam. The only way to "save" money from Study.com is through their trial and referral discount. Those who think of doing a cheaper subscription for the quizzes/assignments and then getting the College Accelerator is going to be paying the exact amount of anyone starting off with the College Accelerator. Whoever did the pricing scheme for Study.com thought that out perfectly.
In regards to the extra tests, the fee stays the same even if you have a discount code, that code is only for the monthly membership and not the extra exams. By creating multiple accounts, you save $40/month each time you repeat. But again, there is a downside of only doing "specific" courses so they overlap, the previous account courses will not show up to get you through the courses faster.
Example of what I mean by the pricing is the same for College Accelerator and Premium Pricing. Let's choose 10 courses in two months. It doesn't matter how you swing it, the pricing is the same for those 10 courses.
College Accelerator:
$400 for two months, 4 exams included
$420 for 6 additional exams
$820 total for 10 courses over two months
Premium Subscription
$60/month - get all 10 courses done but the finals
$200/month for two exams
$560 for 8 additional exams
$820 total for 10 courses over two months
Note: I did this calculation with a various amount of exams/months and the numbers are the same!
The only way to get discounts from Study.com is from the referral discount and using their 5 or 30-day trial.
Some people were able to finish a course with that 5-day trial and some were able to complete multiple with a 30-day trial.
I don't know how they got that 30-day trial, but if you're one of the lucky ones who scored it, you just saved $60 bucks.
