So just how bad IS Saylor?

I'm not so sure they're even good for just learning the subject. 

It's been a while, but the couple courses I looked at were extremely disorganized with broken links and non-focused content.

Depending on the subject, if you're just looking to learn, there's likely better free resources out there.

On the other hand, if you know the subject very well and don't have to suffer through the course, it's nice that you can skip right to the exam. But as has been stated, they're appear to be pretty difficult exams.

Here’s my current criticism for Saylor. Some of the videos are ancient. I stared the course on Organizational Behavior. The first video looked pretty old. The computer monitor in the background looked like it was from the late 80’s. I googled the instructor in the video. She is about 80 years old now. She looks much younger in the video.

Do you happen to know if that Organizational Behavior course will transfer to TESU?

Yes, I took the exam in January 2022 and it transferred in as lower-level credit for Organizational Behavior (MAN-212). The credit recommendation is due to expire at the end of this month.
