Fall 2021 Session 1 -- What is YOURPace?

[ss20ts]

I read this thread bc someone from my study group has been following ashkir's plan for a degree in Leadership so I'm interested to see how everyone is doing.  He just submitted his draft for his 9th class yesterday, obviously he is very driven, the rest of us in the study group (not UMPI students) are mere mortals so of course we're very impressed with his pace but if I remember right ashkir and ss20ts far outpaced that rate in their first term.  Is it UMPI or is it the personalities drawn to this program?

ashkir is now on his master's. He has submitted work for his 9th master's class over 3 terms. 

I completed my BLS last March and am now back for my BA in Business Administration with Marketing Concentration. 

In ashkir's undergrad, he completed far more classes than I did every term. He was hospitalized at the time and had a lot of free time. I've completed 4, 8, and 4 in the 3 terms I spent completing my BLS. According to the Director of YourPace, the average full time student completes 3-4 classes per term. People on this forum tend to complete more classes because we're very dedicated to completing our degree as fast and as cheap as possible. We also have competed coursework on our own for months so we know how to zip along. That's not to say this program is for everyone. If you're someone who prefers tests, then this isn't for you. If you hate writing or are terrible at it, then this isn't for you.
