Just the quizzes, but the chapter practice can help you realize the areas you've forgotten or didn't learn enough.

Don't feel so bad because these kinda things happen! I've had that experience twice before, failing by ONE point...so I know how frustrating it is! You have a better idea now what to expect, so you'll get it next time. For future reference...with study.com courses, I've found that the chapter tests and the practice final are very good gauges for the proctored final. So if you understand and can correctly answer ~85% to 90%, then you'll be safe on the final.
I also like to remember how much better off we are than traditional college students where one fail plummets their gpa down to nothingness...

Had issues completing the Personal Finance course as a lot of obstacles came rushing to my personal life. I passed the deadline of the scholarship. Is there anyone here who tried applying the second time?

Well, silly me! I spoke too soon. I guess the test was graded a little differently than I expected. I looked at my account this morning, and apparently I DID pass the course. *WHEW* My proctored final shows 110/200 points w/ a course grade of 70%. Thank goodness! Now I can move on to a course that I don't absolutely hate.

That's awesome! Haha... that's good news, what are you taking next, it's like the new story line or chapter in your Study.com journey.
