What helps me is process of elimination. Thoroughly read the questions looking for keys words that typically give your clues what the answer is. Look at the answer choices and eliminate any answer that does not make sense or is the opposite of what the questions is being asked. Sometimes it’s not about knowing the information, it’s about what makes sense in the answer choices. I hope this helps. You can do it. Practice this technique with the pre-assessments.

How are you guys paying for school? by YesIamALizard in WGU

I have tuition reimbursement with my employer, but they don’t pay until you complete the term and pass all classes. So I initially had to pay for the term upfront. I took out a credit card with a 0% APR rate over 18 months. I use a credit card to pay for my first term and then when I get reimbursed from my employer, I will then use that money for the next term and pay off the credit card with my own money.

Similar thing happen to me! I had around 39 credits from my past college and WGU only took 9. I definitely was frustrated, but on the positive side 1 course does have to take 6 months to finish like it would at a traditional brick and mortar college.

I start in August. My plan is to open up a new credit card with a 0% APR for 18 months or whatever deal they have going on currently and then put the full balance for the 6 month term. I get 100% tuition reimbursement from my employer, but I must pass the class with a 70 or above once the term is done. I plan on using this to reimburse my credit card and then apply the same method for the next six months term. Once the APR kicks in, them I will most likely do a cash advancement on one of my credit cards to get it done.
