I completed my MBA at the University of Phoenix.

I took 11 classes in seat and one class online.The program was good and I was impressed with almost all of my instructors.

It was difficult because I was working full time, but I enjoyed the one on one time with instructors. I had some very impressive instructors. I would say that it is a fast option as I completed my general MBA in one and a half years. However Project Management Concentration would take 6 more classes.

I am planning to use my degree to continue upgrade in my own field which is the Energy Sector, consult at a later date with other organizations, invest soundly in the stock market, and increase the amount of money that I will receive for teaching overseas.

All in all this has been an excellent option for me, cost effective and Masters level corporate finance and accounting have greatly helped my investing success.

This forum changes lives. I hope to contribute as much as I can to the forum users and if I can come up with something in the field of networking thats a new contribution to the world, try for a PhD later on.

The people of this forum rock. and one more bump for 10 tests in 4 days.

This was the LEGENDARY POST that changed my whole mind about being able to test out of some classes and and finish my Bachelors degree.
Cool

I agree that this forum can be life changing.
It's not just the forum though, its the CLEP and DSST exams, TESC and Exelsior and others that make this all possible. Gotta give a nod to straighterline.com Pennfoster.edu and ALEKS -- Assessment and Learning, K-12, Higher Education, Automated Tutor, Math. Don't forget the ACE site, REA for their great books and the iPad which has allowed me to study longer and read more books via amazon.com etc.

The people here help so much in inspiration and to tie a program together. It's great.
