MBA from Hellenic American University (HAU)

[allvia]

The finance course was tough but manageable just needed to study and do the practice assignments rather than just jumping into the graded assignments. I got an A in that course but it was really tough for someone who has taken only one accounting and one finance class in the past.

Good for you, and your advice is solid.  My family member had taken zero accounting/finance courses prior (their bachelor was not even remotely in business - which is what motivated their 'need' of a MBA). That is one drawback from the 7 week course schedule (imo), one can develop a sense of urgency to work quick and move through it.  As you've pointed out, even in a 'quick' course, sometimes you just need to pause and take it one step at a time.
