Low cost ACE reviewed history courses from Shmoop.com

[kskoog]

Hello! I am just starting my research for completing my bachelor's degree and have found the exam resources on degreeforum and the degreeforum wikia to be really, really useful! After reading the post on the low-cost ACE exams at Shmoop (I figured that would be a cost-effective place to start), I contacted them for more info as there isn't much available on their site. It looks like they are planning on raising their prices soon, so I will most likely get started sooner rather than later, and I thought I should post that info in case anyone is planning on signing up with them:

Thanks for reaching out! You caught us early on in our ACE CREDIT® tenure, and we're really excited to hear from you.

To answer your questions:

1. Yes, we do have courses for ACE CREDIT. If you subscribe as a student, you will have access to all three (and hundreds of other courses along with them).

U.S. History: 1492-1877 (College) - Shmoop Online Courses
U.S. History: 1877-Present (College) - Shmoop Online Courses
Modern European History (College) - Shmoop Online Courses

2. If you pass the course with a 70% or higher grade, you'll be eligible to receive credit. You will request the transcript through the ACE site as you would normally.

One other thing we want to mention (and which you will see on the buy pages for the three courses!): now that we have ACE CREDIT recommended courses, we are going to be changing our subscription plan and the subscription price for the ACE package will likely be higher than it is now. It will still be lower than our competitors, for sure, but we want to give you complete transparency so that you know what to expect. You can expect to see that price change within the next month or so, along with more ACE CREDIT courses being added; if you upgrade, you won't lose any of your progress.

Please let us know if you have any other questions!
