I am taking the Financial Accounting course now, just to learn something that's brand new to me.

Aside from some quickly-fixed issues with study questions not even allowing me to input responses (the pull-down menu options weren't even available), I'd say I enjoy the structure of the course. You don't have to watch the videos if you don't want to, since the content is also displayed as JPEG files with typed text underneath. Timing is going to be different for everyone: I've probably put in a few hours before reaching the first of four exams, but I'm also not the type to just click through for that "pass," and I've been searching out other resources to clarify some of the content.

I can't really speak on any of the other courses, since I took equivalents of all of them back in undergrad. I signed up for the two courses for $29 subscription plan, but haven't decided which other throwaway course to add in as a refresher. Did you happen to end up taking any of them that you liked?
