So is the best strategy to take the test blind and hope for the best? Not sure if it makes sense to do a Study.com test if the grade does not matter.

How about for schools other than the big 3? Looking at Southern New Hampshire or Colorado tech as well.

The best strategy is to put the work into studying a subject to learn the material just like you would for a traditional college class. Otherwise what value does your "education" have?

To get that college degree check mark when employers are looking for a minimum education standard that is irrelevant to the job or irrelevant if the person can do a job

Regardless of how you feel about the importance/relevance of any learning you do along the way to earning a degree for improved job prospects, this is a public forum that is regularly viewed by people all around the world. Including people who run colleges, alternative credit providers, and potential employers. When people in those positions see people within a certain community having the attitude of taking a bunch of tests blind and get through a whole degree without learning much or caring about the learning outcomes that are supposed to come with the degree, then the degree itself loses credibility.
