The official guide to courses by Straighterline, Study, et al: We want YOUR input!
Provider: InstantCert Credit
Course: Astronomy
Course content: It is done by lesson and has a video in each lesson, alongside the exact transcripts in-case you can’t watch the video.  
Final exam format: 50 questions, multiple choice.
Final exam content vs course content/practice exams: The final exam, just like the other exams, needs to have some of the answers re-worded, as the way you are explained things in certain lessons can create some confusion based on how they word their answers for those exact same problems.  
Time taken on course: Two weeks, but that is mainly due to my busy schedule at work.  Otherwise, it can be done easily within one week.
Familiarity with subject before course: Astronomy has been a favorite subject of mine since I was a child, so I understand the information quite well.
How would you have scored on the final with no preparation? Terribly, but that is due to how the questions were worded and the answers.  
Pitfalls, high points, things others should know: There are grammatical errors all over and I discovered a video that skipped a section last night, so the course definitely needs some TLC.
1-10 Difficulty level: It was harder than normal because of the grammatical errors, but I would say a 5.
