I am disappointed to hear this as I plan on taking some courses with Study.com soon. I thought the one benefit of a live proctor is if an issue (technical or otherwise) pops up then you can reason with the proctor in the context of that situation. Now I have to wait on pins-and-needles for who knows how long after my exam just to get a "soft score"? At least with a live proctor if they do not have any objections during the time it takes you to finish the exam then it would be safe to assume that your "soft score" is valid.
Now, with no proctor there in real time you have no idea if there are any objections since the video will be viewed by who knows who at a later time. Did a family member of yours accidentally cough or make noise in the other room? You get real time feed back from a live proctor if they have an objection, now,who knows?
