Study.com passing scores?

[Kbass1995]

I am a bit confused (as usual). I am looking at the requirements for the classes at Study.com as well as looking at past threads here. If one gets 210/300 points (70%) is that a pass for the class? On their website it says a passing score is 70% on the final but I don't know if that's a final exam score, or the total score after the final exam.

Yes, 210 or more points passes the whole course. If you get 100 on the quizzes, you only need 56% or better on the final to pass.

To add to the confusion.....also note that some schools may want higher percentage to accept the credit. example, COSC wants 80% overall score (that means 240/300 for SDC) to accept credit from this provider.

You basically want to get over 70% for everything, but of course, somethings happen, so you try to get the max on the quizzes, final, and assignments. Another example is UMass Global (previously Brandman), they require 81.5% on the course to get ACE credit transfer, it's slightly more than the 80% at COSC, the bulk of the institutions accepting ACE remain at 70% for the final course grade percentage.
