Provider: Saylor
Course: BUS205, Business Law and Ethics
Course content: 11 topics with 5-10 question practice tests on each topic, plus the 50 question practice final. Most content is featured in the free online text "The Legal and Ethical Environment of Business." I actually liked this text. It's not filled with legalese or anything like that. It does appear to be about 7 years old, which isn't really a problem other than it's kind of funny since there are a lot of examples of "current" events that... well, aren't.
Final exam format: 50 Multiple Choice questions.
Final exam content vs course content/practice exams: While I only saw one or two duplicate questions, of the Saylor exams I've taken this one seems to be the most closely aligned with the practice tests. Good work, Saylor (I mean that)
Time taken on course: Half a day
Familiarity with subject before course: Based on my conversations with my peers (not including actual legal professionals), above average.
Pitfalls, high points, things others should know: It's Saylor
1-10 Difficulty level: I thought it was a 3, but I suspect others may not feel that way. A lot of people seem to shut their brain off at the mention of anything "legal"
