For those working on courses at UMPI, how much easier/faster is it than Sophia.or for example? I know some courses such as English I/II and Public Speaking or something will be easier at UMPI. But for other courses, how do they fair? For those who have done StraighterLine and/or Study.com, how does the courses at UMPI fair in comparison? If some of you can do 7-10 courses a term, I can probably finish the entire degree requirements in that one term for $1400!

Harder then Sophia.org, but it is closest to Sophia.org in learning capabilities. It's formatted very similarly.
English Comp I/II is easier at UMPI. The other classes are harder at UMPI. But, they're easier then Study.com/Straighter Line for the most part (Besides BIO 105).
UMPI is the quickest way to get a BA degree as of right now combined with Sophia and a single bio transfer.

I find them very similar and have been able to fly through the courses... except for Bio 105 but I think we have all heard that one is a monster.

Ouch, that's like a purposely placed perfect pitched plot to make you take an extra term... hmm, the thickening plot I think is going to be interesting... err, this gets more interesting than the drama I'm currently addicted to! <turns on TV>
