Hey guys, I just got Study.com but I don't understand how it works. I'm doing the placement test, so you skip all the tests due to prior knowledge so what are you really learning and studying for? I don't get it cause its not like flashcards where you could review it.  Thanks.

The placement test is used to skip over knowledge you already know. It will cut off once you get to like 80% of the course or cut off when it deems your knowledge is limited and must go through the remaining lessons you didn't test out of. It's considered to make the course quicker as it shortens the material needed to review for the exam.
