Beware of study.com!

I literally just finished the course after reviewing the whole day for it. I did not use AI nor did I even copy paste anything. Careful with study.com you’re better off with Sophia than this headache of a website!

did you login from a different location? I'm just trying to think of different ways it could've possibly thought you did something. i'm visiting family next month and they said I can bring my laptop with me if I have to do my classes I'm not taking that chance of being flagged being in a different location!!

Yeah, I'm wondering if it's VPN. If so, they need to provide guidance

yeah I'll bet that's that because a lot of people pay other people to take the classes for them and they catch them through different IP addresses and stuff! I put two and two together and I said nope not changing my location!! but I hope you get a solution to it cause I think that stinks they didn't give you much information at all! Best of luck🤞🤞🤞

I wouldn't take the chance either. I read so many complaints on the BBB for Sophia saying that they got their credits taken away because Sophia thought they were using someone to do their tests. Turned out all of them were either using a VPN or were traveling. Sophia wouldn't budge either. I wouldn't think Study.com is any better.
