I paid a heft $40 for a 10 slide presentation on strategic management. This presentation contained no actual facts and it was just a list of products with their descriptions. The whole presentation was grammatically wrong, when I refused to accept the answer the expert resent the file in a different color hoping that it will satisfy me. I emailed course hero and the just said they will look into it. 2 days later the tutor send me the same file again. The same expert accepted another question from me which I paid a fee of $50, when I saw the standard of her work I cancelled the question from the expert. No refund just a message that the question will not be answered by senders request. What a rip-off!!

Bad answers slow response. My daughter used this for a Physics homework problem. It took nearly 24 hours to get a response though the "Expert Tutor" said he was working on it. Follow up emails weren't replied to until she complained on the main help email. When she did get the answer 50 % of it was incorrect. The graphing tools used for the answer were inadequate. The worst part the Expert Tutor Rating is completely bogus. There's not a way to rate the experience, which also means the rating you see isn't truthful.
I decided to sign up for course hero since there were some positive reviews but it was the BIGGEST MISTAKE I could have made. DO NOT sign up for course hero. You do not get what you sign up and pay for. First off, the search is unorganized and it is extremely difficult to find anything you need. Secondly, the documents I did find were exact copies of the worksheets I was looking for help on.. There were only the questions with no additional help, which is obviously completely useless. Finally, the customer service is completely incompetent.. I emailed them about my dissatisfaction since the downloads were completely useless and in return they offered me additional downloads.. watch out, this is the biggest scam ever.
Loving the QA system they have setup there. The tutors there know their stuff and they definitely have helped me understand some confusing and complex math questions. I've been recommending Course Hero to all my friends who are lazy too, since they can get a lot out of the Homework Help section. Thanks CH!
There seems to be a lot of online educational websites that have popped up recently. I like how Course Hero is setup by spotlighting the search function. I know I might not find exactly what I'm looking for, but even at a library you won't find the answers. The site helps maintain relevant information for your searches, which is super useful in find solutions and answer and concepts to other material. The search might me a little lacking, but actually taking time and searching through the documents will uncover some great study material.
Great customer service that helped me find what I was looking for and as well guided me through the site. I appreciate service that is there for the user. I hope to continue to use the service all the way up until I graduate.
I'm a cramming student and all the pulling all nighters are not a problem. Course Hero has been that study partner who is always there even when I'm in a tough place and need some reliable information quickly. It's challenging finding some of my specific questions, but if I've gone through this course, thousands of others have too, so the information is there. Great tool!

I was looking for physics help online and I stumbled on to Course Hero. Wow, a lot of notes on physics and practically everything science related. It takes a while to sift through some of the notes, but you can definitely find what you're looking for. I've been telling my friends about the site, and they've been hooked too. Love the idea and concept!
