SDC quiz question for power users..

[suzycupcake]

i feel like the sdc videos vary a lot in usefulness (some narrarators are just too annoying to listen to) but i feel like i am able to answer the quizzes easily when i take time to listen to the videos. i know it's faster to read the material but i don't think i absorb things as much just by reading, esp since the content is usually SOOOO dry. for me personally, i can either read a lesson 4 times or just take the 8 minutes to listen to the video once. I also put closed captioning on the video so i am getting auditory and visual input for the key terms and definitions. i have to say when i did straighterline, the classes were way faster. but when i do study.com i learn a lot more and retain a lot more. the sheer number of quizzes is super annoying though, i don't feel like i gain much from them. i have ADD though, so for me i think it's way harder to concentrate

I have ADD also and the way I need to do it with non-familiar subjects is exactly what you said - put CC on and watch/read!  That works best for me too.

I love SL just for the simple fact that I can plow through 2 classes a weekend easily because I don't have to do 500 quizzes :: But, if there is a subject I need to know more about, and not one I'll never need to know about again, I would do SDC for it. The small chunks help a lot I find.

Don't watch the videos and try to pick classes that over lap so the subsequent ones are partially completed when you start them

This trick just worked for me with Eng Comp I and II!  I was 45% done before I even started. It was FABULOUS!
