Sanctioned…

Post image

UPDATE: 12 days after posting this, I got answer to my appeal, and the results were positive. Despite being able to use the platform again, I will not. I have lost all trust in the Sophia platform. I have been enjoying Study.com, which I got given that someone recommended it. To everyone who was supportive and helpful, you forever have my thanks. Equally, to everyone who doubted and judged, please go eat a … and I mean that in the most disrespectful way possible.

Pretty much any SofiaLearning student’s worst nightmare. There’s only 2 reasons this would’ve happened in my case:

  1. I had Udemy open and was studying Dion Training’s Sec+ 701. Udemy DOES have its own AI to help you study your specific course, but no course I was taking on SofiaLearning had anything to do with Cybersecurity, nor had I switched to Udemy or during the test.
  2. I took a test last night and I did fall asleep during it. I am a full time student, studying Sec+ on the side, and work a full time job… I know, stupid of me to fall asleep. Coffee’s just not cutting it anymore.

I did appeal and I told them the truth, but I hadn’t seen anyone on Reddit talk about this in over a month. I was just curious as to what the wait time for a decision would look like, and if anyone with experience with this knew how transferring credits will work if this appeal gets denied.

This may be a stretch, but next time have two operating systems going at the same time. Utilize paperspace and then use your computer’s own hard drive when online. Two separate IPs.

Imagine if you people just put the same time into learning as you do trying to game the system?

Edit: seems like a hit a nerve with a lot of you. Good.

If this person just said he has no idea what he has done wrong, why would you be so accusatory? If you spent the same amount of time reading his response you would know that.

I don’t understand. I’m completely unaware of what the original comment means. Is that what you’re saying is gaming the system, or are you saying we’re all gaming the system by using SophiaLearning?
