Work backwards from
goal dates to complete a course – Simple math is incredibly helpful. If you have 3 courses to complete in 6 months,
you have 2 months to complete each course. That’s a simple calculation. If your goal is to complete 1 course every
month, and your course has 4 tasks, you have to complete 1 task every week. We all have different pacing, and WGU lets
students study at their own pace, but that doesn't mean a snail’s pace is
acceptable. I've found that successful
students have a time frame they want to complete a course, and set up a plan of
action to reach that goal. If you leave
a course open-ended and will complete it when the time is right, inevitably
time is wasted, delays are always occurring, and completing all their courses
in a term is very challenging.
