Study.com Subscription Question - Lewis.Yim - 10-05-2019

Hello everyone, I am on Study.com's website about their plans, see here:  https://study.com/academy/plans.html

Currently, I am on the College Accelerator as I am doing at minimum 2 courses a month along with exams.  I want to change this to a lower cost plan, does that allow me to complete the quizzes AND ASSIGNMENTS?

I don't have the time to do the assignments for some of my classes and want to spend the next month or two on doing them, but don't want to pause my membership, what would be the best way to go about this?

Yes you can complete the quizzes and assignments BUT you have to have the College Accelerator plan to turn them in and get graded for credit.  What I do with mine is this:
One month on Premium plan studying 1 course (you could perhaps study 2), then sign up for Coll Acc plan, take that exam and study for and take the 2nd exam before the month is out.  This gives mine time to prepare but they are only 13 yo so an adult may well be able to study for 2, take the 2 exams and still study for and take a 3rd exam.
The cost ends up being $130/3 credit class but, obviously, if you can do more in that time the cost will be even less.

You need premium to see the content and the quizzes. For the assignment you need to contact support, they will provide a link so you can submit assignments without the need for any active membership. If it is possible for you, you could try to hit 5 exams each months when you have college accelerator membership.

You don't need College Accelerator plan to turn them in, ask for a link to submit without a membership and they will provide it.
You can use college accelerator to power trough quizzes, check the requirements of the assignments and take the exams, next pause and finish the assignments.

I was told by Study that you cannot do the Final exam until all the assignments were turned in.  Don't know if that is correct but it's what I was told.

It's not correct. They have been telling people that basically forever, and as far as I know it's never been true.

Good to know!

Yes I really really like study dot com because they give you everything you need to pass the course and they simplify textbook jargon into plain English with a focus on need to know information. That being said, it’s cheaper to grab a beat up textbook for $5 on amazon and study 2-3 courses at a time. Then sign up for the course provider when you have a knowledge base. This is always a smart thing to do, even with brick and mortar education.

That
