Seeking feedback about Patten University

[Saharapost]

Welcome to Degreeforum. I am enrolled in the BA Management - Leadership program and have completed 11 classes since June 2015 with 6 more classes to go. Currently, I am taking MGT410 – Human Resources Management.

Because Patten's competency program means you don't have to take the classes like you would in a traditional online class environment, it is possible to complete a Patten degree as fast or as slow as you can. To your question - how difficult the classes are, this depends on the person taking the classes I'll say. While I find the classes absolutely doable, someone who doesn't have prior college experience may find them really difficult. For me, the classes are fun. I go straight to the exam and submit a final project to earn credits when I already know the material. In cases where I have little to no knowledge in the class, I read the material, do the unit quizzes , take the final exam and submit the final project. Overall, Patten's classes are not super easy, but absolutely doable.

On how long it takes to complete a class, it depends on your knowledge about the subject. Even when I am new to a course, it takes me about 2 weeks (if I am really serious about business) to complete a class. I have completed a Patten class in a week. I have also completed a class in a month when I am madly busy at work and have no time to do my assignments. It all boils down on the amount of time you put into it.
