WGU MBA Curriculum Change - dposborne - 07-02-2014
For those that didn't know (I sure didn't until this morning) the curriculum is changing next month for the MBA at WGU. Per telephonic discussion with my mentor, this change does not affect those already enrolled under the older curriculum.

I like the look of this curriculum a lot better. Now I wish I had waited to enroll.

Just out of curiosity, what changed?

I like that they have objective assessments (tests) mixed into this program. The old program was nothing but performance assessments (long papers). Maybe this will cut down on the ridiculous amount of writing.

It does look better. I'm glad I got through when I did though.
But then I much prefer writing to testing so YMMV.

They added tests and evened out the credit distribution from what I can tell. It seems like they also revamped each class adding content and renaming. I spoke with my mentor and she told me that I can switch over if I wanted to, but it would be foolish considering I have 3 classes left before I am done.
About the writing: I despise writing, but I find this format fits me the best. If I had to do it over, I would prefer writing over taking tests.
