Not worth 2 dollars Not worth the money. The quality of the courses are uneven (some just plain terrible -- but some decent). Platform itself is out of date and not user friendly -- not much effort is put into designing a platform that meets the user needs. One can't choose 10 courses in advance or set up a profile with favorites. No app. Website is glitchy. In general it seems it was designed 10 years ago, not updated and they focus all efforts now into locking unsuspecting customers into year-long memberships and no effort whatsoever into providing quality courses or platform services for the actual members. Do not subscribe!

Just want to echo other reviews ... (bad ones) ... Just want to echo other reviews: Brutal business model. I was waiting to be sent something, or just anything; never heard, was surprised to have my credit card charged after using zero of their service. My request for a refund was denied.

If I could give zero o would If I could give zero o would. They never sent me anything after the first two weeks and then casually charged me a thirty dollar renewal fee and would not refund it even though o contacted them immediately and told th o never rece Fed their crappy government ridiculous. They’ve got some nerve calling themselves “highbrow” when they are fraudsters and scammers and are about as lowbrow as they can get. I’m contacting my attorney general and BBB to report their scam

Real learning in bite-sized pieces I'm pleasantly surprised at how much I've learned from some of the Highbrow courses. As a busy professional, it's hard to find time to study long texts about subjects I'm curious about. Too often, I abandon articles or books before finishing them, simply because of the pace of work. Highbrow sends bite-sized pieces of learning each morning, something I can always manage. It is amazing how much information can be packed into those pieces. If I want to explore something further, each day's lesson includes links to other resources, which is invaluable. I'm no expert at the end of ten days, but I've been exposed to the basics and usually some actionable advice I put into practice. Highly recommended.

Here's the deal Pros: sleek design, interesting content Cons: content lacks depth and skews toward generic truisms; they don't honor customer satisfaction - if you don't like their product, then you're stuck with it for a year and the $48 USD price Observations: they send the course(s) you choose, otherwise you don't hear from them
