I'm always happy to complete the free application waiver for those applying to WGU (I get a free gift from WGU for this). Just PM me your first/last name and a valid email so I can complete their form.

Honestly I don't know how she does it. This program is intense non stop. She's thrilled when they break for a week inbetween classes. She has 5 classes right now with labs n lectures. They all need to get some certification done this semester. She does work at her paid externship also with much edited hrs right now. My head spins around just thinking about it. But she's driven.

She also has been do a paid externship and they want to retain her full time upon graduation. Which is great because it's a start up company that is growing at an insane rate. She is also a student board member of this pharmacy board. Thru that she actually does speaking and presentations. Well she is being courted heavily from many different company because of this exposure. Which is great for her. She knows know she must finish her MBA so she can have every possible career advantage. So many scientist do not have the business knowledge and know how. This for all the people that have inquired about her progress. Thank you
I love that!! She's doing amazing!

Ok here's the update! My daughter has finished her last class yesterday and has finals this week coming. She called me and said I can not believe my course work is done! It is done! Now she has 1 yr of rotations. Than she graduates and she gets to sit the boards after that. It's been grueling and ever so expensive. But the worst is behind her. Except for the boards of course! :ack:

She is very lucky to have a Mom that taught her the importance of hard work, striving to reach your goals, and a strong work ethic. These are all things not enough young people have these days.
I know you have worked very hard in supporting her through this, Kudos to both of you.cheersmate
