Do you have to be super smart to finish WGU? What can you do to eliminate any doubts

Even though they completed the program quickly, there are ways to optimize the study plan based on the current availability of courses. For example, I would recommend taking American Government and Calculus at Sophia.

There's a few things this guy had going for him. He had YEARS of experience. He was not working so school was his job and then some. He had a plan. He spent time planning this out. It wasn't like he woke up one day and said hey I'm going to start WGU today and be done in 2 months. 

Is his experience the average WGU student experience? Absolutely not. Not even close. Plenty of people transfer in credit and still take 3 years to complete their degree. I just saw someone this week who spent 6 years completing her WGU degree. She was extremely excited to finally be done. She changed programs and it extended how long it took her to earn her degree.
