re: LSUS Online MBA Reviews

Based on my experience with the program, I believe more stringent requirements to enter the program would decrease the number of whiners we encounter. Some of the folks I’ve encountered have no business in grad school. In some extreme cases, I’m surprised they were able to earn an undergrad degree.

Thank you Cottonseed!!

If you take Kungu for MAMDM 701 you can easily double up. Do not take Heller for 701.

EDIT: Kungu may no longer be at LSUS.
And Heller may be your only option. Hes not that bad just some writing and studying thats a little excessive for Org Behavior.

Dont know much about 720.

Acct 701 is fine with Ambrosia just make sure you're good for the final. Everyone in my class got A's on the weekly quizzes then bombed the final. He then had to curve the shite out of it. He might have restructed the class all together after that debacle. (took last fall).

Anyone have a copy of the syllabus or info to share for MADM 720 Leadership Comm with Kimberley Williams?

TLDR: ACCT 701 with Dr. Li Huang is quite doable with another class.

I am in my first class of the program, but I wish I would have known more before. Two tests in and I totally wish I would have taken an additional class with ACCT 701 (Li Huang).

I do not have any accounting background and have made a 100 on the first 2 tests (closed book, 10 questions multiple choice, proctorio). The "homework" consists of a 20 question which are open note proctorio, two attemps...made a 100 on both modules so far.

Everything you need to know for the weekly test (50% of grade) and "homework" assessment (30% of grade) is in the powerpoint. If I understand the concepts on the homework assessment, then I will know the weekly test. It's not the same test, but the questions are around the same concepts and style. This is the format for the entire session from what I can tell. I spend about 5 to 10 hours a week, tops.

The only caveats I see/know is A) Dr. Li Huang is somewhat hard to understand when listening to the lectures, but I get what I need out of it, B) There is a "project" at the end of the semester that we haven't been told what it involves, but what I have gleaned from emails: it is going to be something that can be done in a week's time (20% of grade), C) I am a good test taker, so this class seems simple to me, YMMV if you do not test well. This is memorization and regurgitation at the core.

I will update after the semester, but I wanted to give people something since registration for Summer is coming up soon.

Thanks all

I'm taking Econ next and it seems like Shaugnessy is the known entity. I don't have a background and I hear its a tough class. Is there another recommendation for a professor who is easier?

I am new here. I am hoping to start the LSUS online MBA program in May. My bachelor's degree is in nursing and not business so I could use some advice on what to study or any good resources to read or watch before starting with the core courses in the program. I appreciate any information you all can provide. Thank you!

The Acct, Fin, and Econ classes start from a principles level. you would nearly be learning the same stuff in a lower level class. At least thats my experience coming from a Bachelors in Business from Auburn. I would watch some youtube videos and do some internet reading on the principles of these 3 areas in particular. This should give you a starting point. Id say that they're the classes a non-biz person would have the biggest learning curve with. I posted something about econ on the previous page. Every other class you should get A's in if you apply yourself. And judging how resourceful you were in finding this forum, you will be fine.
