#11
There's one in the 100's History section that is 100% filled in by American History 1 and 2 and World History 1 and 2 but I don't remember what it is

There are a couple of others too. Many many courses are 80% filled in by others.
Study.com - 177 CR. TESU - 39 CR. Middle Georgia State University - 15 CR. Sonoran Desert Institute - 42 CR. COSC - 6 CR. Excelsior - 6 CR. CLEP - 6 CR. Sophia - 14 CR. TEEX - 2 CR. Shmoop - 18 CR. NFA - 4 CR. The Institutes - 2 CR. FEMA - 20ish


BA in History/English from TESU. 
BA in Communications from TESU. AS in Firearms Technology from SDI.

The biggest benefits to Study.com are 1) they have an app, and 2) duplicate material is filled in on other courses. The more courses you take from them, the bigger benefit #2 turns into. I have had courses be completely filled in by others so that all I had to do was take the final.

I'd love to know what those courses were !

How do people finish these SDC classes fast? I am transferring my credits to WGU for an IT Management degree and I’m wondering if I should just start WGU. I will finish this study course since I paid for the month but between this and my Sophia English 2 class which I’m halfway through I feel like I’m in a huge lag and wasting time. The Sophia course is taking over 7 days for the papers to be graded but I’m halfway through so sticking it out.
Take the placement test and it can knock out many quizzes if you know your stuff
Thank you! I have and it gave me 24% completion but it’s still tedious to do 100+ tests - I know the information I have 15+ years work experience in management
  I feel you on so many levels. I am slogging through Bio 101 currently and that is an accurate description ! I feel like I will never get done and don't ever feel like doing it. The placement tests are awesome if one is available and if it keeps showing like you can take it again, do so
as it's also good for learning correct answers to questions. I've taken one three times before. Do the quizzes only, take notes on questions answered wrong and retake. Usually a quiz is 5 min or less, often only 1 min. Your business classes have overlap as do others I'm sure so when you look at other courses, you could see that many lessons are completed already because of the overlap in content. That helps a ton
. Sophia looks different and the dashboard makes it look like you're really making progree. I prefer that format. I keep reminding myself that having the ability to binge and do many lessons at one sitting is far better than waiting through weeks of a traditional course. Good luck !


I feel you on the Biology class! I have since fully finished 4 SDC classes and what has worked is just slogging through them and taking them in order so there is more overlap. I also don't take any practice quizzes whatsoever. What I found I like about SDC is that for most finals you only need a 58% to pass so I can take the final pretty much after finishing my class and get a passing grade. Still have 9 SDC classes to go!
