The other courses that I've taken with SL have only had 4 graded exams in addition to the midterm and final, but all 4 only had 25 questions each. Thanks for letting me know! I will definitley be avoiding these courses now!

There are only 20 questions in the regular graded exams (the majority) and 60 questions in the midterm and final. I finished macro with a 90% just randomly answering the final and will probably do the same with micro. Both finals are worth very little of the total grade.

I'm so sorry! I read your question wrong and thought you meant the final exams. I see someone else gave you the details on the other tests. And yes, there are a LOT of them.

Community College: Intro to Philosophy, Fundamentals of IT, English Comp 1
Saylor: Intro to Business, Principles of  Marketing, Corporate Communication
Shmoop: US History 2 (WGU won't accept this)
ALEKS: Int. Algebra, College Algebra
Study.com: Personal Finance, Principles of Finance, HR Management, Global Business, Advanced Operations Management
Straighterline: US History 2, Environmental Science, US History, Microeconomics, Macroeconomics, English Comp 2, Principles of Management, Business Law, Business Ethics, Psychology, Organizational Behavior, Accounting 1,Communication, Managerial Accounting, Statistics
Ed4Credit: Managing Information Systems

That's ok, I should have been more specific. 20 questions per exam is still quite a bit because there are SO many of them.
