Term 4

A little late to the game in documenting this journey towards betterment but hey, better late than never!

I started at WGU in August of 2014 – finished up my first term with 15 CU’s.  I started out the term with a bang, finishing my first three courses within the two months.  Then came IWT1/IWC1 – Literature, Arts and Humanities – ugh!  Probably my worse courses to date, I just couldn’t get into them and there was so much to try and remember for a crummy 2 CU’s each.  I ended up carrying over the Performance Assessment (IWT1) into my 2nd term but was able to wrap that up fairly quickly.

Term 2 I also knocked out 15 CU’s.  The Statistics class gave me some headache but was actually quite interesting.  It was the Integrated Natural Science courses that frustrated me during this term.  Talk about information overload!  Every realm of science crammed into one 4 CU course!  The Performance Assessment course wasn’t bad at all – just a lot of tedious work to get through.

Term 3 – 21 CU’s this term!  I was so proud of myself!  I knocked out Project Management, Marketing and Business Communications, Spreadsheets and Quantitative Analysis during this term.  I rather enjoyed each course during this term.

Now onto my current term – I am diving into the accounting courses and feeling a little overwhelmed.  I transferred in Principles of Accounting (VYC1) but  I took it a few years ago so I feel like I’m re-learning some items.  I am attempting to wrap up CZC1 – Accounting II.  I took the pre-assessment today and scored a 67% which is also the cut score so I need to study more.  Quite a bit more actually since I felt myself guessing on multiple questions.  So my plan is to study up on my lowest scoring sections and re-take the pre-assessment again in a couple of days and hopefully schedule the Objective Assessment for the next week.
