Masters should probably be better RE: 2nd BSBA option Degree at TESU - eradreede - 11-13-2019 (11-13-2019, 02:06 PM)dfrecore Wrote: For the BSBA/2nd Degree, here are your cheapest optionsThank you. I appreciate this. I prefer all except SDC. What is your advice regarding Saylor and Davar, are they fast to complete - for example accounting or business classs? Esp the UL classes? Will they be a lot of papers or East to just pass with a passing score? RE: 2nd BSBA option Degree at TESU - davewill - 11-13-2019 (11-13-2019, 04:23 PM)eradreede Wrote: I prefer all except SDC.

The courses themselves are a bit of a mixed bag, some are OK and others are pretty bad. The nice part is that you get access to all the course materials for free, so if you start and find it's not good, you can simply move on. The materials are often scattered around the web, which makes them a bit disjointed, with shifts in terminology and some repetition. You may also encounter broken links or rearranged pages that don't match the instructions. The material also often ends up not being focused so that you spend a lot of time studying things that aren't on the exam. As far as the exam goes, some of them have errors, outdated info, or ambiguous questions. Not many people have taken a lot of the business courses, because there are so many other choices for them. RE: 2nd BSBA option Degree at TESU - tjguitar85 - 11-13-2019 Quote:MAN-390: Managerial Communications This Davar course transfers to TESU as a 200 levle course, not that it matters. I passed the Davar's Finance & communication courses with a few hours of reviewing the chapter quizzes and the powerpoints. It's pretty easy. Sometimes info in the Mult Choice can help you with the essays. I don't like Davar because of the essay questions personally, but I had more courses than I could get from SDC in my desired time frame, so I picked two from Davar. RE: 2nd BSBA option Degree at TESU - jsd - 11-14-2019 it's still very unclear why anyone would waste time on this and not a masters i'm saying this as someone who has 2 bachelors and would do a third if i could still get my employer to pay for it... but that's because it wouldn't be on my dime and i apparently have developed a weird hobby. as far as utility, this seems like a waste as far as time, money, and opportunity cost goes.

And can you like pass it even if you score low on the exam like what I heard for Straighterline where as long as you pass the mpdules you’ll pass the exam or even if you score low as long as you make 70???0 RE: 2nd BSBA option Degree at TESU - tjguitar85 - 11-14-2019 (11-14-2019, 12:30 AM)jsd Wrote: it's still very unclear why anyone would waste time on this and not a masters I need a bachelor's degree in something business related to qualify for a job that I want. I wouldn't bother otherwise. A MBA would require significant more cash and effort and generally I feel like MBA's aren't overly useful unless from a top tier school. RE: 2nd BSBA option Degree at TESU - jsd - 11-15-2019 A 6 month MBA from WGU would be cheaper than a TESU second bachelors, and while not as useful as a top-tier MBA, it's still a better degree than a lower level degree at an equally non-prestigous Big 3 school. Courses might be a little more effort, but you'd have like 50% less courses to take (and honestly I'm not so sure WGU's MBA program is all that grueling, though I can't speak from experience) RE: 2nd BSBA option Degree at TESU - eradreede - 11-15-2019 Does DAVAR or Saylor offer these? 1. Principles of Healthcare Management 2. MAN-415 Change Management 3. Negotiations and Conflict Management 4. Healthcare Legal and Ethical Considerations 5. Healthcare Quality and Outcomes: Measurement and Management 6. MAN-373 Managerial Communications |
