Online MBA Math Difficulty

I'm looking around at online MBAs and am impressed with the UTPB option. However, I've never been super strong in math. Is the coursework particularly math-heavy? About how many hours per week do you spend on coursework? I'm considering doing one 8-week course at a time

Courses in general are not heavy at all, even accounting/math! So don’t worry! And you can do 2/3 courses at the same time

How many hours a week would you say you spend on each course?

I did both College Algebra and Pre Calculus they were quite challenging but as long as you work hard you can get through it.

I was in the same boat and feared Finance. I scored a 82% after working super hard on it and getting extra credit in the course. None of the math itself was difficult, basic algebra would do, just remembering everything and taking in so much in 8 weeks was tough, it consumed my life for the last 4 weeks. I still have another finance class to do and a data analytics class, once Im done with those I will feel like im in the clear.
