WGU MBA Online Advice Compilation
#3
Eh.. its a nice compilation, but everyone's opinion will vary.

I found Managing Human Capital to be laughably easy (however my BSBA minor was HR). I took the OA (final test) on my very first day of class 30 minutes after taking my pre-assessment (which I took cold) and passed.

Managing People and Leading Organizations was two very easy papers that took a few hours each. Never opened the course reading.

'Marketing paper was very easy. Hardest part was coming up with an idea, but it could be anything. It didn't have to be a new product, just one your company doesn't offer currently. Your company can be fictional. So there is thousands of things you can use. For instance, a movie theater chain that currently doesn't offer 3D or Imax. So, your new product is 3D and Imax. An ice cream shoppe that does not deliver and doesn't offer frozen yogurt (and now you're adding it). Simple. Took me 3 hours to write.

For me hardest classes were Economics, Accounting, and Financial Management. Mostly because I prefer writing papers more than memorization.

Data Driven Decision Making had the easiest two tasks of the entire program. Both tasks were completed within one hour.

My biggest advice on the Capsim... Do the practice rounds over and over until you score well on each round. Do all rounds (all the way to 8, even though you only have to do 4). Once you start your competition rounds, a light bulb will go off, and you will thank me. I was given the same advice, followed it, and my team completed the entire competition round in 1 hour.

I finished all 10 classes (all but Capstone) in 2.5 months. Capsim with pre-work, team formation, task 1 and 2 took 1 month (team was not fast). Still working on my Capstone Business Paper and Video Presentation. I have over 2 months left in my term, so I'm not stressing.
