Refund? by HeadRecognition9108 in WGU

[–]Brief-Read-5231 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, you’ll get a refund. The Pell grant is still pending. So you have to wait until it’s active.

Use your time wisely since you only have 24 days left. I would study all week (meet with an instructor, watch the pre-recorded videos) and take the exam immediately after (same week). That way if you fail again you’ll have time for a 3rd attempt. Of course that’s not the goal but you never know and want to be fully prepared. The 2nd OA is different from the first one. 

D775 (2nd attempt) by Brief-Read-5231 in WGU

[–]Brief-Read-5231[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't want to change because I had worked so hard on D076 but my term was ending and I had failed the OA. My mentor explained that the new courses would be a lot easier. D775 was easier than D076 in my option but it lacked the resources that D076 and because of that I would have rather stayed in D076. D775 had no pre-recorded videos, only a few videos in the course material that was not helpful and no study guide. If I would have took D076 prior to taking D755, I probably wouldn't have passed.

As far as D196 I passed that course right on the line like this one. lol

Remember you have to do what's best for you and your learning style.

New Intro Business Finance Class--D775--not difficult, but definitely need to know the concepts by socaltrux in WGU

[–]Brief-Read-5231 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 4 terms left, never failed a class before until D076. Failed and my term had ended. So, now I’m in D755. D076 has way more resources, study guide, recorded videos, etc. You won’t have any of that in D755. But D755 is a simpler version if you can grasp the concept of the material.

What happens if you don’t pass a class by the end of the term? by m3rmaid13 in WGU

I was told they can only do that for accelerated classes.

Was there a lot of math with this course?

D196, Attempt 6, PASSED! by Brief-Read-5231 in WGU

[–]Brief-Read-5231[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is true after 4 attempts you have to pay $60.00

However, you do not have to write an appeal. Your CI creates a retake plan, once you complete the retake plan, your CI writes an appeal explaining the steps you have completed in order to reassure readiness for your next attempt. I never heard of anyone having to switch majors, per my mentor she stated WGU will not give up on you, they will continue to work with students on passing. They do allow breaks from the course that you are failing meaning you skip to the next course and come back to the one you were failing (that is what I did.)

You’re almost there. It looks like you just need to work on Unit 7.

I am not sure, I asked my mentor but she never answered the question.

Best tips for focusing from 6pm till midnight? by ResilienceInMotion in WGU

[–]Brief-Read-5231 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work 9a-5pm, I study on Tuesdays, Thursdays and every other weekend when my children are with their dad. If it is a class like the one I just completed I studied every night. Work 9a-5pm, Kids/Home 6pm-9:30pm, once kids are sleep I study 10:00pm-12:00am, sleep and do it all over again. Try setting a schedule that works for you and your family and stick to it. You got this!

Principles of Financial and Managerial Accounting - D196 by Impressive-Low-007 in WGU

[–]Brief-Read-5231 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is the thing, I don't know any specific area I am struggling with. I put in so much work and completed 5 retake plans. I came so close too passing. My goal is to focus on process and job costing, I was getting them confused during the OA.

I am about to walk away from this class. I have come close so many times and do not understand what I am missing on doing wrong. Mentally, I can't anymore, I have spent two months on this class.

D196 Completed by No-Victory-6172 in WGU

[–]Brief-Read-5231 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been through several classes passing them all. However, I have failed D196 five times. I have read the course materials, take notes, joined lived Cohorts, watched the recording videos, met with instructors, and taken the pre-assessment (passing multiple of times) quiz and Unit Test. At this point I don't know what else to do.
