No degree to MBA-HR in 20 months - Nodaclu's Progress Thread

Any feedback in terms of weekly amount of work it's taking you to complete? Where did you obtain most of your source information?

It's hard to explain...it's been hard for me because I haven't written a formal research paper in 25 years. But do I think it's hard in general? No, not at all.

I also had an advantage in that I picked a topic that tied in to my profession, so I started with a strong body of knowledge. This reduced my personal workload in creating the paper. In total, I probably have about 20 hours total into it.

For most people, I'm guessing 4-5 hours per week should be plenty. Over a 12 week class, that's 48-60 hours of work on the paper. 60 minutes a night, 5 nights a week feels like plenty, and also doesn't feel unreasonable at all.

It's not easy, but it isn't overwhelming or impossible either. You can do it! Smile



Just registered for my last two classes!!
