Just Finished Next to Last Semester
 
Start my final semester next week, two courses to go out of 14 requried. MBA Programme, Webster University, 3.9 GPA (B in Advanced Finance).


With everything going on, this has been a tough ride. Had to take a semester off or I would have finished this week.



Just had to vent/brag/and just say something in general. Also have to finish one more course for my final certification (doing all at the same time with the farm, full time work, and some other hideous irons/fires). I'm going to be glad when this year is done!

Congrats! Just remember, your degree.... you didn't build that!:D

David: keep at it!

I graduate next July. 5 courses to go (two more core, and three electives) out of 16 required. MBA program, Exclesior College, Albany, NY. 4.0 GPA. <-- very, VERY proud of that! :D

MBA program sponsored by my workplace - it is a 2.5 year long accelerated program, which basically means I've not had a life for the past 2 years. No track time, ( :( ) no vacations, I forgot my wife's name, no time for anything. Weekends and nights, I literally spend glued to my studies. I am sure that the OP can relate!

Congrats again -- I know what you've gone through!!

I just finished up course #4 in my MBA program, if I continue with taking 9 hours per semester and 3 hours per summer I'll be done after next fall. I may throttle back a bit, as it has interfered a bit too much with family life. 4.0 thus far!

What about the remodel? Or was that longer ago?

Good job for both of you!

Good memory, red-beard... (Or, are you stalking me?!?!? :eek: )
Remodel of the kitchen ended just before I started school in September, 2010. However, this summer, we remodeled our master bath. Used the same General Contractor to manage the project, which proved to be helpful. Will start a new thread on the before & after of that redo later...

Good for you all. I got my MBA about 25 years ago going to school at night and working all day. Met my wife in the program. So two MBA family.

Thanks Guys!

(We'll be a two MBA family as well, but one of us has a Doctorate and a Diplomate as well....She's the smart one, except for that dumb act in or around 1992...)
