I am needing to get some basic information. Is there am exam in this class? Is it proctor? Do they let you use a calculator?
I have been trying to work on formulas. My start date got moved to May 1st, due to problems that WGU made a mistake and had my transcripts showing it was from them. So I decided to start learning formulas for Statistics. So far I just don't get what is needed to be successful. Watching YouTube videos, etc.
I can't wait. Would you say 3 classes every 3 weeks to complete is doable? Or it just varies on a case by case basis? I have to say bravo to all the people that finished within 6 months. Simply amazing. :)
It's up to you. Some can complete classes that quickly, some cannot. It's all in how much you want or CAN put into it - if you have other responsibilities such as kids or a demanding job, you may not be able to go that quickly. In all fairness, most people do NOT finish within 6 months - there's an active facebook page for the program and I am guessing that most finish in 8-12 months. Several of us have done it in 6 or (much) less, and there are those that need to take it slower (and there's nothing wrong with that!) and take two years.
I finished in 3.5 months, but I neglected everything else including sleep to get it done. :)
WGU's materials emphasize using a proctor for the RN to BSN classes. How does this work?
The objective tests are proctored. You either go to a testing center in your area or you use a webcam at your home where they can watch you take the exam that way -- whichever works best for you. The webcam is supplied by WGU.
