Class info - Jennr2z - 05-14-2022
Hello- I’m starting UMPI 8/29 and will have 10 classes to complete, BLS minor management. Bus 260 Leadership, Bus 321 Human Resources, Bus 415 Operations Mgmnt, 5 UL electives (any suggestions on quickish type classes are appreciated, Jessica sent me the extensive list of options, history, biz, political classes). And rounding out the 10 courses are Eng 121 and HUM 103.
My questions are, of Bus 260, 321, and 415, are any particularly difficult or a TON of writing so I should avoid taking at the same time? Second is looking for the suggestion on the quickest 5 UL. I would love to complete the 10 in one 8wk session, but I’m allowing 2 since I already have a super full plate with children, sports, full time job, etc, etc. Thank you for all advice!

You'll have 2 classes open at the same time. Once you finish one you request another class to be opened. You won't have all of your classes available at the same time. Define a ton of writing? Ask Jessica which ULs have an exam if you're a good test taker. Some ULs have short papers and are easier to complete than others. Basically you have to look at what the Final Assessment is and make a judgement for yourself. Everyone has different testing abilities and writing abilities. I'm someone who'd write papers all day long before taking a test. There's no avoiding papers at UMPI. I don't like to say what the Final assessments are from when I started at UMPI in 2020 because some have changed since then so I always say to ask for the current info from Jessica.
