Provider: Sophia.org
Course: Approaches to Studying Religions
Course content: The course is divided into several sections with a mini final at the end of each, and then a final at the end of the whole thing
Final exam format: 25 multiple choice questions.
Final exam content vs course content/practice exams: The tests are skewed towards the Eastern religions. Other than that about the same
Time taken on course: a couple of days
Familiarity with subject before course: I am very familiar with all of the major world religions except Hinduism
Pitfalls, high points, things others should know: There is almost nothing on the tests about Christianity or Judaism. Very little about Islam. Lots about Buddhism, Hinduism and Taoism
