In summary,even on other sites such as study.com, since only the final is proctored,cheating is always possible,since the final exam is only 20 or 30 percent of the entire grade.
There haven't been dozens of posts advocating manipulating those systems, so the point is moot. When Shmoop first came around, there was a large contingency of people here advocating just that, and we know by what Shmoop has publicly said that a person with an unusual amount of credits within a day or so made TESU take a second look.
I personally don't care what you or anyone is doing with Sophia or Study.com or where ever. I'm just telling you the series of events that happened around when TESU first announced they'd be rejecting Shmoop.
Was it a day or was it a month? Check your sources. BTW there are plenty of posts regarding finishing a ton of courses in 1 month from Straighterline,study.com,etc,so why the focus on Shmoop? Just be accurate and truthful regarding the time frame.
