What Users Love About the App
“Great value. Very helpful. Classes have exciting videos, interactive activities (I think), you can transfer your passing courses transcript to most community college and universities.”
“Very helpful to add as a study tool to my ready material. I can listen to it wherever I am if I’m not able to read my book. The examples provided along with education help me understand the concepts!”
“Exceptional! The tuition videos are outstanding. You can rely on this service to achieve your goal. Quizzes, illustrations, plans, ect.”
“Works great! Yes it’s expensive but the lessons are well thought out, way to understand, with quizzes for each section, and they have a 30 day refund, so if it was too much you can get your $60 back, so it’s like a 30 trial.”
“First time I’ve paid a lot of for an app (really for the website log in) but worth it. I can listen to my study materials or read them, take short quizzes after every sorry video, download the content off-line, and it covers exactly what I need it to.”
What Users Dislike About the App
“This app has a poor performance and is very useless for my studies. I asked a simple question for assistance and it was rejected right after billing me for a month. It doesn’t worth it.”
“Tried to do a 7 day trial with this app, tried to give it a chance see if I liked it before purchasing or not. Was automatically charged the monthly fee and trying to cancel and get a refund has been a nightmare. Waiting for a call back now.”
“Free trial isn’t free. They charge you upfront and you get your money back if you’re not satisfied. And seeing as how I cannot access the course I just paid for I’m not satisfied. Don’t bother.”
“Allegedly free to sign up according to the website, only it’s not. Basic account is 39.99 which is worth it if you want to learn independently and you’re not already paying college fees. If you’re just brushing up on one or two units in a module, it sure isn’t worth it. There are better alternatives.”
“As a teacher I cannot see my dashboard and the assignments I’ve given my students. I only have the option to use the app as a student not a teacher which makes it ineffective for me.”
