G'day,

I am done.

I didn’t take the quickest route or the cheapest but I am finished. I applied to Excelsior on December 18 last year and enrolled in the BS - Operations Management on the 21st. I started without any credits, spent about $10,000 and submitted my final assignment on December 16 and received my grade on the 27th. My grade for the last course wasn’t good but it was enough to finish the degree and give me an overall GPA of 3.72.

I’d like to thank all the members of InstantCert for sharing their experiences. It was a great help in preparing for exams and provided the inspiration I needed when motivation was low.

I would like to wish everyone all the best in their endeavors.

Regards

Congratulations!!! Pretty speedy. I was hoping for a year but it'll be more like a year and a half for me. Now that the end is in sight I'm pacing myself more because doing this and working and trying to raise a family ain't easy! Great job!
