PLA and residency credits

[ROYISAGIRL]

PLA credits are rarely worth the time or money. For $79 you can complete far more than 12 credits if you put some time into classes on Sophia.org. It's $79 a month and it's LL classes. Study.com is $200 a month and has UL courses. You're limited to 2 exams a month with additional exams for $70 more each up to 3 additional exams a month. There are also community colleges with online programs that are much less than $178 per credit to get your RA credits.

I always find it a bit strange when this said.  Sure PLA may not be worth it for lower level courses, but for upper level courses that people tend to struggle to find there's plenty worth there.

In my experience, PLAs are extremely time consuming with a boatload of writing and documenting which isn't always easy to do. Quite often it's faster and easier to complete a class on Study.com that's UL.

Don't get me wrong I definitely agree with doing Sophia, SDC, etc. If they have the courses. I can only speak on TESU PLA, it's not as time consuming as it seems if you know what you're doing.
