Hi all,
I'm a newbie - been lurking and soaking up all the great information here.
I am trying to meet prerequisites for an MBA program and need the following 6 classes:
1. Microeconomics (plan on taking CLEP)
2. Marketing (plan on taking CLEP)
3. Organizational Management (plan on Independent Study MGMT 301 at Colorado State U. - thanks for the tips on this cheap alternative!)
4. Production/Operations Management (plan on Independent Study MGMT 311 at Colorado State U)
5. Statistics (I just found out my school doesn't accept DANTES exams)
6. Managerial Finance (no DANTES option here either)
I was a bit concerned with timelines, but I think that knocking out the first 4 in a 5-month timeframe is doable.
I've been looking for an independent study option for #5 and #6? Does anyone have suggestions? I have the option to take the courses at my school, but I am looking for something self-paced and less than $1300.
I hope I'm not getting in over my head, but I'd like to meet all my prereqs before the end of the year so I can start in the Spring.
