Do you have to be super smart to finish WGU? What can you do to eliminate any doubts
#6
Six months is for students who have min-maxed their transfer credit into WGU. You need to come as close to the 90 transfer credit limit as WGU allows you for your degree (each degree has an optimal theoretical maximum transfer limit; some as low as 70 credits, others are 81-84 credits). If you don't already have industry experience, you're going to want to do significant pre-studying. You're also going to need to devote most of your free time to studying for and passing the exams while you're actively in WGU. You need to join the unofficial Discord/Facebook/Reddit groups so you can plan your optimal WGU path.

A 6 month timeframe isn't that unusual, but neither is 8, 10, 12 months. I think WGU has a published average of about two and a half years. There are too many variables to give a definitive answer.
