Horrible for Broke College Students
Their subscription stuff is bull, especially for students who are paying for their own materials. They shouldn't have their fees be based of of the book material. It's a horrible website.

My syllabus did not say we were going to use WileyPlus, so I purchased my new loose leaf copy on Amazon for $145. Turns out we needed it. So I ALSO needed to purchase WileyPlus for $131 (couldn't return to Amazon because I opened the loose leaf) . That is quite expensive for one class, Wiley was not willing to give me any breaks and I paid the publisher twice for access to the book. And really, the software is garbage compared to Connect. I can't go over the problems multiple times throughout the semester, its clunky, just bad.

Absolute trash. Absolute waste of time and energy. Fu*k universities that pander to them in order to offer online courses and certifications that are useless - and deprciative over the course of your educational advancement.

Confusing questions, biggest scam in the education industry. They will make you spend close to $100 just to waste your time, money, energy, and will to succeed.

For starters, it lacks reasonable input methods and the book used for Physics 2102 is awful. You must enter decimal answers rather than SigFigs or Scientific Notation. Many calculations are incorrect, finally, many answers that are exactly the same as what Wiley gives as the answer are not accepted. Wiley needs banned from colleges, this is a tool to make people hate learning, there isn't much else that I can say or recommend. The platform is toxic to academia.

I took this course online as an intro to finance course. This is by far the worst course I have ever taken. I am an IT manager, and when I spend more time figuring out where to place digits, I wouldn't lie. I mean, if you forget a space or a number, you are screwed, and the grading sucks. I told my advisor and professor, and they both shrugged me. Please check ahead of time what software they are using. I had to end up dropping this class. I am a 4.0 GPA student, so I'm not lying here.

Website is difficult to navigate and dated looking. They deduct for wrong answers without explaining the reasoning behind the correct answer, so it seems like they are punishing you rather than trying to help you learn. Also you only get 1 attempt per question, so if you misclick an answer you are SOL. Next time I'll just burn my $100 instead of spending it on this garbage.

Their website is misleading. Then, trying to find out any information for which you have paid, is impossible. There is no way for you to follow up on orders. You can file a case, which you get an automated response to, but nothing is followed up on. No email is sent once you have paid for something, no receipt, nothing. Would never recommend this company to anyone!
