WGU MBA in 57 days - NOT ME!

[Merlin]

Just saw a posting on the WGU MBA FB page that she is in her capstone and will have finished her MBA in 57 days.   Started on July 1st, had all 10 courses finished by July 29th.  Started the capstone on 8/1, final grades will post August 31st.  Pretty amazing.

57 days is really quick no matter how you look at it. I have to imagine the student has a lot of prior knowledge in the subject matter as well as a ton of free time on their hands.

I know that one of our board members @randomsoul completed his MSML at WGU in less than 6 months and followed that up with an MBA shortly thereafter, but he was able to complete courses with overlap between both degrees to speed up the process on the second degree. Once I finalize my BSBA I'm hoping to follow his example and pacing.

But to be able to do the first degree in less than two months? That's a heck of a goal... something to think about to be sure.
