Hey Everyone
I am so excited i have completed everything. It took me 30 days to complete 80 credits and my final course i need to get my degree from WVUP started June 27th but i finished the course in 2 days very easy. I graduate August 5th and the excitement has gone from medium to supppppper supppper high. Now I'm on a new path to receive the bachelors degree credits with in 4 weeks as well the only thing that adds time is having to wait for the college courses so that we can receive our degree. This has been an amazing experience and challenge that i would recommend over and over and over again. I can't wait to start the Journey to a Bachelor of Science or Art

I just realized that i didnt include Fema which i would recommend people to do if they can receive credit for them WVUP doesnt give credit so i didnt factor it in but im thinking about doing charter oak maybe they would if so thats 9 Extra credits and the potential to do more courses on fema.

How did you manage 80 credits in 30 days? Do you have any tips for someone just starting this process?

Honestly if you have the time you could knock out a whole bachelors degree in a month. I would try to complete as many courses as possible a day i never put a cap on it. if i had the money to start a new course i would purchase them. do the easiest courses first with straighterline which are almost all the courses in my signature and then do the hard ones. Because the easy courses could take 5 hours to complete the whole course with the final exam and i would try to get above 90% on the quizzes so i didnt have to worry about getting a high grade on the final you just need to pass. I also did fema courses that i didn't factor in because im not sure where i could use those credits. To be honest just sit in the house for the weekend and go to work some days i slept 2 hours because i would do final exams back to back with proctoru. im telling you if you have the drive and the time you can accomplish anything. 48-72 hours is enough time to sleep eat and knock out 8-12 courses (24-36 credits) so if you look at it this way 3 weekends in a month doing 48-72 worth of work sleep and eating could total up to 82-108 credits in a month. But money plays a big part if i had the money all the time i would be done with a bachelors already.
sorry if i go off topic at times but if you have any other questions im happy to answer them

I think the courses you have listed would fit into a TESU BSBA really well. Check out Sanantone's and Dfrecore's plans for how to finish a BSBA.
