Saylor Courses

[Sunshine326]

Hi all, 

So I opted not to take Principles of Management through my school Southern NH University (SNHU) for $1096 and chose to take it via Saylor Academy and want to provide a recent an honest review. 

First, I got an 85 on the direct credit exam that my school participates in with Saylor. I didn't even read all the class material. Instead, I studied the study guides Saylor provides, used a REA CLEP exam prep book for larger concepts, googled some larger terms I didn't know. Then, I did the non credit exam. This was a mistake. I got more out of doing the practice quizzes at the end of each unit. there were 9 total. I did them and redid them and did them again then I studied the concepts I wasn't strong in briefly and then redid the quizzes (not the non credit exam!). Once I was getting the unit quizzes right at 80-100% I scheduled my test and passed it. The questions are tricky but not awful. Those unit quizes prepared me best. Now, not to spout religious stuff but I also prayed to St. Joseph of Cupertino for assistance just prior to the test - he's the patron saint of students and exams as well as St. Judas Thaddeus - the patron of desperate causes because passing means I graduate 12/2020 instead of 3/2021 - I was desperate! Praise both St. Joseph of Cupertino and St. Judas Thaddeus for helping me pass - I'm not even catholic! Try it you've nothing to lose!

Finally, that whole proctorU thing SUCKED. Would NEVER do it again - do sophia learning instead. I did 6 of those and was so happy I did those. 

Good luck!
