Good morning!
I am currently in an accelerated MBA program, online.
Make sure to have plenty of time to study and read the material. In my program, we are responsible for writing initial replies to given discuss topic based on the reading material, and then, constructively replying back to 1 to 2 other students on their initial posts. For your program, you may have to take exams, it is up to the discretion of the professor as to if they will proctored or not.
You will be covering a traditional college semester in half or less if the time, so be sure to stay on top of your assignments and readings. A lot of accelerated programs may utilize online books, but if you can have a physical book, it could help.
Any study guides given are a definite big help; use those to guide your studies. Also, if they outline specific objectives to focus on, focus on those so you are not essentially placing more energy on things that are not as important.
In my class this term, we actually created a virtual study group where we ask questions to each other and also vent our frustrations when necessary. It helps having a support group around you that can relate instead of feeling alone in this.
Create ample study time
Join/create a study group
