Absolute scam
Absolute scam. No educational merit of the least kind. Egotistical founder seeks only to glorify his own self and the whole thing smacks of a sick cult.

Learn new skills or finish a degree for FREE
I’ve taken a few courses on Saylor.org and really like it. Everything’s free, self-paced, and well put together. The site’s easy to use, and the lessons actually teach you something useful without all the fluff. There's even an iPhone app I use. You can earn certificates or college credit if you want. It’s a great option if you’re trying to learn new skills or finish a degree without spending a ton of money.

Waste of time, just try CLEP
Course material is not complete, or helpful in preparation for the exam. Questions are written poorly with mistakes, missing punctuation, etc. No revision available or any guidance on the area of improvement. Example of some wording out of a question: "campaign gear company's" instead of "camping gear company's". Not serious at all.

Final Exam- If you don't obtain a 70 or higher, you can retake the test in 7 days. However, they do not display the questions you got wrong. It shows the final score along a message stating you can wait and retake the exam. There are online courses that will show the right/ wrong answers and give you the chance to study again.

The site constantly crashes
Ughh. Where to begin. This site is constantly crashing. For a site created by a Michael Saylor, a computer tech, the site should have zero down time. There have been too many instances where I finish one page, click for the next page, and the site crashes. Most of the time it's a 504 error. I'm convinced the site is hosted in someone's bedroom computer. Also, the site looks like it was made in the 1990s. The usability is quite lacking.The good side is that there are plenty of accredited courses. But man do they need help.EDIT UPDATE: This website is complete garbage. I spend more time waiting for it to load. These fools running the site don't announce when they are working on it. So you can be in the middle of a final exam and it will crash on you. Also, Saylor stop using Amazon to host your site. Hosting is dirt cheap these days. This isn't 1998 any more.

I've been using the website for a long time now and I'm happy with it. The only thing I don't like is the old fashioned design of some areas of the website.
