Hi all,
So I have recently been taking some study.com courses. With some of the negative publicity they have been having, I wanted to make a post on something that has impressed me, personally, anyways. I seem to remember the study.com app being used for a "study schedule" or something like that, and I had no interest in it. I decide to check their app again (I'm on android, no idea about iphone), and it's basically an optimized version of their website with full course functionality! One can go through a course, watch the video , study, and then take the quiz....all from the app! I see myself using it as much or more than the website as I have periods of downtime where all I have is a phone on me and wifi. Again, it is not a simple schedule app or anything like that, you can actually go through your courses and videos, and take quizzes, you can even download the course for offline study! Not many apps live up to their hype, but study.com's app is wonderful. You can use it for everything short of the final exam, it appears. So, good job study.com on the impressive app. The layout is very nice, it's visually appealing and easy to use, and fully featured. Thanks for listening to your customers. The end result, for me, will be getting through my courses quicker using the app, rather than having to be at my desk or at home trying to find time to sit down at the computer, and will help greatly with studying for the final exam.
PS: I don't think the 3 quiz limit is the end of the world.....after all, if you could take a quiz 15 times until you get everything right, that's not exactly normal at any other institutions. I do feel that anyone who has started courses on their account before the date should be grandfathered in using the old methods, it seems unfair not to, but I don't see that as unreasonable for the future courses people start. As long as you stick with that limit and don't go further, it seems good to me. But I was paid zero to express my opinion, so it's worth about that much too :roflol:
