There aren't a whole lot of negatives from Straighterline. Most courses are great, some others are not so great.
The ones I like most are the ones with the least amount of exams and has open book finals.
There are a few that has a set of a dozen or more exams (or coursework) and a closed book final.
I think there's a couple with a proctored final that's worth over 35% up to 50% of the grade.
The main benefit of Straighterline courses is the speed one can finish. I recommend them for that.
You might want to try it out with a few courses and use Straighterline for courses that's not found elsewhere.
