Donnie, I'm interested in hearing more about your MBA program. Are you enjoying it? Are you on a certain track? What's been your favorite class so far? What made you want to go back to school and pursue your MBA? Just curious.
-
Well I'm doing the professional weekend MBA at the University of Louisville which is the 75th best Business Scholar in the country. I haven't settled on a track yet and I may not as it isn't required. I just wanted to get a higher degree for a better job.
-
That's good. Was it hard to return to school or was it not that bad?
-
It wasn't hard to get back into going. I failed the GMAT twice but they still admitted me...I guess because the enrollment was down. I won't say I love it but I think it will payoff in the end.
-
How could you "fail the GMAT"? I thought it's all graded on a scale and not pass/fail.
Incidentally, I'm sure it will help you out long-term. I haven't really directly used my MBA to get ahead but in my current teaching position my MBA has enabled me to teach a business class, so that's a plus. :D
-
Well I scored lower than a 500. That is one hard test.
-
How has your semester been going? Are you enjoying it?
-
Just got done with Project Management. I can read a Gantt Chart now lol. Yes I still like it. I begin Capstone Project next semester. I won't know what I will be doing until the school gives us projects to choose from.
-
So Spring 2019 will be your last semester? I remember doing my Capstone Project. We had about 4-5 of us who had to figure out how to turn around a business that manufactured cat litter that changed color if the cat had a urinary tract infection, IIRC. ;D
What has been your favorite class so far? I think mine was Digital Marketing, or Global Business. Least favorite was probably statistics or financial management/accounting.
-
Strategic Management has been my favorite so far. Statistics and accounting sucked bad lol.
