I took Kendall, I found her well engaged and responsive. Adequate interaction to do well in quizzes and the class. Final grade, A.

If you HAVE to take two classes -
I MIGHT consider pairing MADM 760 by Sammy Wyatt with another class.
I MIGHT consider ACT 701 with Fabio Ambrosio with another class.
I would only consider this because based upon the workload AND the teacher's ability, a 2-class workload might work.
The other really involved teacher is Tim Shaughnessy in ECON 705, because Dr. Tim is so involved (2 zooms a week) and the homework assignment (in Excel) is able to be used in the weekly quiz, it might be manageable.
For the record, I haven't attempted pairing any classes.

I haven't taken him, if it's fin acct, try to Fabio Ambrosio, hands down, one of the best profs I've had here, NO memorizing, he just wants you to learn. Open book quizzes.
Not much to worry about even if you get a bad instructor, the material is usually sufficient to self learn. The best thing to do is take one week at a time, don't look ahead and don't look back. Some weeks will be easy and some will be harder. There's no such thing as honors levels in graduate work, you just need to maintain a 3.0 GPA.
Moodle is easy to navigate and you'll get used to it. Check your email daily and pay close attention to deadlines. Also if you get in a pinch, the MBA coordinator, which is now Daria Koksal can help out, override registration deadlines etc., if needed.
Don't ever miss a quiz deadline! I missed the final exam for acct 701 which I had been averaging an A in, missing the final dropped my grade to a D. Since it was my first class, the 2.0 GPA earned me a suspension from the program.
Also, don't be worried about taking classes in any order, none of them are prerequisites for another.
The program is what it is, the staff is very friendly if busy and all the other students are in the same boat as you, working, studying part-time, family obligations etc. We're all in it together.
If I can ever help, my email is richardsd27@lsus.edu
Good luck!

He's a great teacher and his approach is awesome!
I found Heller's quizzes intuitive IF you thoroughly read the chapters and write out (copy) the PPT review slides, I followed this procedure each week and found the questions largely easy to answer. ALSO, there are two fairly easy questions from BOTH of the youtube Ted talks. I watched each one twice, again, the questions were relatively straightforward.
I had Wyatt for MADM 760 and Shaughnessy for Econ 705, they are both really good teachers and Dr. S has two Zoom sessions a week to cover ALL of the upcoming quiz questions. I would recommend.
Try doing a Boolean search in Google and it will lead to scholarly articles.
The LSUS library also allows you access to JStor, so try searching in JStor and then signing in with your LSUS credentials if you find something interesting.
Lastly, try using the search database function at the LSUS library.

I'll repeat from another post:
I took her course. I found her thoughtful and well engaged, she and the TA were easily accessible via email. She did a good job of covering the basics, if you have any finance background it might be a bit slow. All in all a good experience. I got an A in the class. BTW, she lets you take a formula chart to each exam, so there's no need to memorize formulas. You just need a Texas Instruments BA II Plus, less than $20 on Amazon. The formula sheet eliminates any need to memorize formulas

Contact the MBA coordinator Daria Koksal via email. They have been great about getting me into closed courses when I need to take them.

I didn't pair any classes, For your AP1, I have taken either of those professors. The professors for each class can make a huge difference. Use ratemyprofessor.com to find which teachers are best. or the Google Docs sheet
FIN 701 - I had Lynn Kendall, really engaged, highly accessible and breaks down the material to easily understand - she also allows a formula sheet into the quizzes.
In your AP 2 - of the first two classes, ECON705 took more effort, my prof was Tim Shaughnessy, a really engaged teacher that held two zoom classes each week to go over upcoming exam questions, this kind of engagement is rare at LSUS MBA, I highly recommend him, the class took abt 20 hrs a week. For MADM 760, I had Sammy Wyatt, another excellent teacher, he was engaged just differently that Dr. S, again abt 20 hours a week. I got an A in each course.
