SL Business Statistics - is the final open-book?

[AW84]

I took a few courses at SL early on and all the finals were open book...anyone know if business statistics is, or is not? The syllabus that I can view as a non-member doesn't say anything about what's allowed on the final.

Related question: how long are the quizzes and mid-term, and are they timed?

You can see which exams are open book, or not, here: https://www.straighterline.com/how-it-wo...g-details/ Business Stats is open book.

Depending on which school you want to transfer the class to, I would strongly suggest Sophia Stats over SL.

Most of the StraighterLine business courses are open book, the general studies courses for some are not. In regards to the quizz/mid term, they are all timed and open book as well. Just like Sophia.org/Study.com courses, I usually have a second monitor attached to my laptop to review the content and go through the course. The only time I remove that second monitor is when the proctored final occurs for SL/Study.com

WGU.

IIRC, Sophia has only a final exam, and is proctored. Is it open book?

Nice thing about SL is the way the course grading system is done, if you ace all of the quizzes, you only need 10 points on the final exam. This stats course is really the one and only class I'm concerned with the rest of the way to my degree, so I'm looking for the easiest path to check it off.

Sophia Stats has Challenges (quizzes) and Milestones (exams). It's completely open book. Not proctored.

Keep in mind that Sophia's Intro to Stats is not Business Stats, and if Business Stats is a requirement, then you'll need to take it elsewhere (SL, Study.com, or Saylor).
