Finished unit four of MU123 Book A now. Found the statistics part particularly interesting and I'm looking forward to studying it more deeply as the course progresses.
Starting to get more and more comments from friends, family and work colleagues indicating that I may be a bit mental for taking a degree on alongside full time employment which is amusing but does make me a bit wary.
My first iCMA opens tomorrow which I'm actually excited for, I just need to skim read unit one and the notes I've made before hand. Ive had several attempts at the practice quiz and don't seem to have any problems with it aside from a few silly mistakes so I'm hopeful of a decent score.
I had a phone call yesterday from a lady at the Open University about whether I should take on another module this year. Her view was that I'd have to move from the easier pathway, which I started on, to the more difficult pathway but she didn't see this as being an issue. She said that the next course (M140) assumes some knowledge from MU123 so it was basically all down to how I felt I was progressing and what extra I felt I could take on. We both agreed that it would be sensible to leave it a few weeks before making any decisions and I'm comfortable with that.
