I'm looking for the shortest courses (w/ fewest chapters & quizzes) on Study.com to fulfill my general education requirements. I don't mind writing papers or doing other projects. In fact, if it lessens the impact of the final exam, I actually prefer those papers & projects.
I'm just trying to compile a list of courses that I might be able to breeze through on Study.com.
Thanks for any input!

You might want to give more details on what your major is and what classes you have already done?

I'm just starting out, so I'm open to suggestions. Right now, I'm doing the Public Speaking course & it's going well. I'm also looking at Vietnam History (History 108) & Civil War/ Reconstruction (History 106). I believe I'll also do a few Psychology courses, as those should fill up some of my general electives.
I'm enrolling as a Biology major, so I'm also considering Anatomy & Physiology, Pathophysiology, Microbiology & Genetics. These aren't necessarily "short" courses, but for the price of Study.com, they're not bad options & they're all required for the Biology major.
I'd like to knock out as many "easy-ish" courses as quickly as I can so that I can focus on the more fun courses that I intend to take at a brick & mortar school - like organic chemistry & whatnot.

Just go to the website and filter the courses down to college-level. It will show you how many quizzes each course has. I've taken over twenty courses from there and have no idea how many quizzes any of them have at this point, except the last two I need to take. You can have your answer in less than two minutes.

I also don't think just because one may have alot of sections does that mean it can take more time. I often skip right to the quizzes if I know the material don't even bother to watch the videos. Whats easy for me may not be easy for you. So far I've done 2 courses thru study I thought they were both incredibly easy principles of finance and personal finance. But then again I work in the Insurance industry and have also worked in the financial services industry so this stuff is 2nd nature to me. In process of going thru a few more struggling with government but will get it done as I need the credits.

Agreed. Principles of Finance was my worst exam grade for any of the courses, IIRC. I could not wait to get through that exam and was very frustrated. I'm pretty sure I scored in the 60s on the exam.
