Has anyone already noticed the change? Now the final milestone COUNTS towards the grade:
"You need to get above 50% to pass and it counts towards your overall score"

I am not sure about "old" courses, but two new courses have that clause.

Also dropped a gazillion of classes!!

I took the Sophia Principles of Finance course, got 80% on it overall.

I lot of stuff I knew already so was easy for me.  Some formulas I never could figure out.

http://www.fncalculator.com/ is what they allow you to you use for the final on the Saylor exams which I have yet to take.  Understanding those basic formulas helps.

I know the intro to information technology also had a final that counts.

I got a 60% on my Principles Finance Final I was just lazy and figured it wouldn't count so why try.  Oh well, I still passed.

Oh, one more thing about new classes: the milestone questions now are worth 3 points (was 2 points for the majority of "old" courses).

Ok, I give up. Trying to fix my comment, and the portion I add keeps disappearing. Oh well.

The Final Milestone always counted in the grade. It was worth 3 times as many points as the Challenge questions. The percentage to pass is new. It's not in the older courses. I'm finishing Microecon tonight and I started it yesterday. These changes may be for new courses and may be because of ACE.

On the previous courses, the Unit Milestones were worth 2 points each and the Final Milestone was worth 3 points each. These changes aren't bad. Better than not having these courses available!
