I say this because I did 2 classes (not MBA but grad courses nonetheless) and didn’t realize they both had exams the same weeks and papers due the same weeks. It was the worst semester I’ve ever had and I really struggled working FT, being a mom/wife and doing 2 classes where everything was due at the same time. I’ve learned from that and carefully compare the syllabi now to make sure that doesn’t happen again.
Hope that helps you.
2 exams in 2 1 week? Ouch! In every class, I had assignments due every week. Some were cited discussions and responses and some were papers or PowerPoints. Don't be fooled into thinking the discussions take 5 minutes because they were long. They required peer reviewed journal articles with citations in both the discussion post and the responses. If there are team assignments, they can be problematic as no one is on the same schedule. I know many people with jobs and families really struggled with 2 courses. Add on the reading and it can be very time consuming taking grad classes.
