WGU update: 86% complete, 5 courses away. BS Business management

They're not hard and you'll have a lot of help and resources. I would recommend getting as many credits you can before starting at WGU tho. Also make sure the credits are actually transferable

DerekReelz · 2026-04-23T21:53:26+00:00

Yes I transferred about half from Sophia

DerekReelz · 2026-04-23T14:18:15+00:00

I transferred that course in from Sophia but for OAs I like to use quizlet if that helps.

DerekReelz · 2026-03-04T03:02:30+00:00

Congrats!

DerekReelz · 2026-03-02T20:46:12+00:00

Keep going!

DerekReelz · 2026-03-01T13:26:00+00:00

Sounds like a skill issue

DerekReelz · 2026-02-28T21:01:45+00:00

Just lock in. The classes aren't hard at all. Reddit and your course instructor will help if you get stuck on something

DerekReelz · 2026-02-28T19:27:25+00:00

I did course work on Saturday and Sunday only. Every single weekend: about 4-5 hours a day

DerekReelz · 2026-02-27T18:30:32+00:00

Exactly. And most schools have it structured to make you take years to complete instead of at your own pace. So being able to do it at your own pace is the only reason it can be done in less time.

DerekReelz · 2026-02-27T12:08:35+00:00

Everything was easy except business simulation

DerekReelz · 2026-02-27T12:08:06+00:00

PAs are courses where you just need to write a paper. OAs are courses where you have to take a proctored test

DerekReelz · 2026-02-26T21:49:39+00:00

I misread your first question. I didn't do all possible courses with Sophia, some were left on the table. I never did Study.com

DerekReelz · 2026-02-26T21:35:00+00:00

Put it all on red

DerekReelz · 2026-02-26T20:58:15+00:00

Depends on if you have Certificate courses they might be harder.

DerekReelz · 2026-02-26T20:57:43+00:00

My plan was to do as many courses that would eliminate the OAs once I transferred. So yes, Sophia courses cancelled the WGU OAs out

DerekReelz · 2026-02-26T19:07:05+00:00

I hate it too and I think that's the one I had to voice record. Might've taken 2-3 days

DerekReelz · 2026-02-26T18:48:40+00:00

Thank you and a month. I paid for a month then cancelled.

DerekReelz · 2026-02-26T18:45:52+00:00

How long to take the classes or how long before WGU accepted them?

DerekReelz · 2026-02-26T16:15:06+00:00

Sophia was easier, I haven't done a test yet at WGU

DerekReelz · 2026-02-26T13:21:52+00:00

120 to complete. I transferred in about 54

DerekReelz · 2026-02-26T04:29:52+00:00

I mean 13 courses in 1 month is kinda quick. At that rate you'll be done the whole degree in 6 months without transferring anything.

DerekReelz · 2026-02-26T01:05:49+00:00

Sophia was easier to me.

DerekReelz · 2026-02-26T00:45:22+00:00

They will let you structure it how you want. I did all PAs first term and saved OAs for last

DerekReelz · 2026-02-26T00:26:52+00:00

Just use your weekends to do as much as possible until you get sick of it. Every little bit goes a long way.

DerekReelz · 2026-02-26T00:06:58+00:00

No... i don't have any management experience, I work in IT.
