a little WGU MBA review....

[rebel100]

Ok, quick update.

I have finished and submitted Task 2 in Leadership, that's the last one. It went in last Thursday, returned yesterday for light revision (I only gave one conflict resolution when the rubric called for 2, and I failed to clearly state the team goals...mea culpa). I have fixed it and expect to pass this round.

I am still working on courses, but ran into a little WGU snag folks should know about. My 1st semester ends February 28, if I open any further courses and don't get them completed by the cut-off it gets recorded as "not passed". They will let me do it, but if anyone pulls my transcript it will appear as not passed as if I maybe failed it...to avoid that I won't be asking for any further courses to be open till March.

So assuming leadership passes I will have acquired 11 competency units (credits) in 6 months taking about 2 months off in the middle of that. I will officially be 1/3 of the way done. I have all the study material and assignments for Finance, Social Responsibility, and Risk...I will try to have 1 or 2 of those ready for an early March submission....Finance looks as difficult as I have been hearing...not so much hard as it is unfamiliar. Reading balance sheets and deciphering accounting insufficiency is NOT a strength...then of course, that's the point right?

Oh BTW....WGU has changed the referral offer, if I or another student refer you its a $45 discount, not a free application...still worthwhile, but not as great. Funny too that once I make the referral I get a $20 gift card to the WGU online gift shop...where it costs $8.50 to ship anything you buy...so the referral (for me) almost covers the cost of the cheapest t-shirt! LOL ....I'm still happy to do them, I like free t-shirts.

Best,
Reb
