Study.com is switching to non-proctored and open-book exams

[Interstate11]

Essentially, I think there may be some miscommunication on this... They're not changing the number of exams, it's just the medium they're using is different for proctoring.  The cost shouldn't be affected, nor the number of exams possible in that monthly membership.  So, you're going to have a max of 5 per month.

Makes sense.  But this new non-proctoring setup should be less labor intensive, saving them a little money.
