WGU MBA-HM first impressions and ongoing comments

IMHO Financial wasn't too difficult, it was just tedious (FA took me a month to complete and I was working 13 hours a day 7 days a week, out of town on business and in a hotel room using a laptop at the time). You really didn't have to calculate anything as they pretty much provided everything for you to look over, analyze and regurgitate. Decision wasn't too bad either, the first 3 tasks flew by in a week for me, the 4th was tedious not difficult at all, just frustrating. I didn't like having to do the extra work to prove my competence in the subject matter to the taskstream grader. I really felt I could prove my knowledge with out having to provide so much work.

I'm on Organizational Management now. Doesn't seem to be too difficult and a lot of it makes sense so I may get this one knocked out pretty quickly as well. We'll see I guess.

Wow. I'm not working or going to school nearly that much (13x7), so I'm hopeful that I can finish in a month. I can dedicate one full day a week to it, so fingers crossed. I looked over Organizational Management and it looks pretty easy. The only courses I'm worried about are FA and DA (which you've eased my concerns over). Everything else from here on out looks fairly straightforward and simple, with the exception of the Capstone. I don't suspect that the capstone will be difficult -- I just have to decide what I'm going to do my project on within my organization.
