I like Sophia, in the sense that a few hours is enough for a lot of classes. I completed three classes on some days. I don't think Study.com will be nearly as fast.
However, I really like how Study.com is set up, as far as efficiently learning material. Somebody tell me if I'm missing something. But what I like so far is that you can keep taking the quizzes (which are numerous but brief) until you get 100%. In doing so, you are learning the material in probably my favorite way to learn. I love it when you can take quizzes repeatedly until you get it right.
I think it's the perfect way to prepare for a test. I wish I could find something just like it, but for the PMP exam.
The math somebody posted before (100% quiz, 70% test, 40% assignments) seems realistic to me, though I haven't taken one of the tests yet. But I am guessing that getting a 70% should be pretty easy if you retake the quizzes until they are all 100%.
With Study.com, the key is getting near 100% on the quizzes. Then, you only need a 55% score on the final exam to pass. Your grade on the final exam will likely be within 10% of what you scored on the practice exam. You get three tries to pass each quiz, and most of the time, they give you the answer when you get it wrong.
For Study.com courses that include papers, this usually makes it easier to pass as the final exam doesn't matter as much. Some upper-level (UL) courses can be passed with as little as a 30% grade on the final exam.
The most common complaint with Study.com is the volume of quizzes, but I think that helps for a difficult subject as it keeps you on track with learning each part.
