Amberton University

I’m with Suzy.  The less writing the the better!  That’s why I chose a less “popular” school with this forum.  Hopefully it works out for everyone. 

Which school did you choose? I really don't like writing essays either. I like the research but find I just spend WAY too much time trying to make the essay "perfect" that I end up wasting a lot of time. I much prefer to just write an exam so am trying to find the best fit for me and am worried UMPI might be too much writing.

I chose JWMI which is just MBAs.  I tend to procrastinate with papers and can struggle to make them long enough.  I like to get to the point.  In college, I would have to go back and add fluff words to my sentences to try to make them longer.  I hated that.  There were times I could still only stretch out to 7 pages when they asked for 10.   We didn’t have “rubrics” back then.  Most of the time, I would go see the professor and talk to them about it and it was usually fine.  My content was solid and answered the question/topic.   When I talked to the advisor at JWMI about it, she said that the papers tend to be a bit shorter.  Maybe 5 pages.  And they lean more toward business style writing.  When I see people post about writing 20+ pages, I want to run the other way.   The advisor is also a graduate of the program, so she has first hand experience.

Ah that does sound much better. I guess that school wouldn't be an option for me though as I'm not looking for an MBA. I need to keep researching the best fit for me.
