Add the ability to test a skill to skip a course

That might be nice. I have to admit, though, even though I breezed through many of the novice web dev courses, there were still little tidbits here and there that really helped solidify my understanding of how things work and behave, and fill in the gaps in my knowledge. You could probably skip to the end of the videos and just do the test/challenge parts, though.

Well, this would be nice with all of the updates with the different classes. I was going through a course and track, and then they changed midway through. I'd be nice to be able to skip the parts you know and focus on what's new.

the whole point of the site is to learn. why do you even want points from a course you don't need? they are a reward for going through the lessons.

Christopher, you have made an unreasonable, overblown response that doesn't in any way match the level of the comments made thus far. You are either pushing your own agenda, disregarding any other rational arguments but your own, or you are simply immature and cannot articulate your feelings in a composed manner.

You can do what you like, but I suggest you take time off from the forums and cool off before replying.

Have a nice day.

I completely support this feature request. I mean, it shouldn't be hard to add an exam to either each of the sections in a course or the end of the course or both that just compiles all the tasks from the challenges and quizzes. Then, by a pretty simple analysis give you recommendations on videos to repeat in the questions you might have missed. that way, if you really want ALL the points or just need to brush up on something, you wouldn't have to sift through the entire course for those little gaps that you might've missed. Also, even when content changes and the system can't attribute the content of an old course to a new one, the students won't have to go through anything but a couple of refresher exams... Anything in the works?
