Are the Math classes on Study.com any good?
#14
Only goes through Algebra (also has Stats, but I haven't used that one personally), but YayMath.org was an incredibly helpful resource for me in taking the College Math and College Algebra CLEPs. Absolutely love those videos. Really wish he would do a Calculus series, but it's more geared towards high school so not sure that will ever happen.

Basically I think the main point is that your best bet is that the for-credit options are not the best options for learning when it comes to math, and if you really want a strong foundation you should use the many not-for-credit options that have been listed here (and countless others) and then do whatever's convenient for earning the credit. I will say, however, that I thought the videos (at least the ones I've gotten through so far) for SL Calc I were very good (if hugely cringe-worthy). The explanations for the practice problems were not great though.

I second the wish for a cheap Linear Algebra course or exam. C'mon providers, make it happen for us!

Edit: after posting I realized I already said the part about the for-credit options not being the best for learning earlier in this thread. Sorry for the redundancy!
