I have some more questions. What is the difference between an exam and a course? A course is going to require a certain amount of time to watch videos and read and the like?
And an exam is basically just a one shot deal where it’s on you to study for it?
Not exactly. With some of the courses (Saylor.org, Davar) your entire grade is based on one final exam, however the amount of time spent studying is mostly up to you. However, others (Study.com, SL) have graded quizzes, papers or projects in addition to a final exam. Depends on the provider and the individual course.
