I am happy to let you know that I was successful in the MQE this year.  This was my 3rd time writing and I definitely believe the structure of the online weekly classes were a major contributor to my success.

"The Thursday night classes kept me on track all summer and made studying less stressful. I couldn’t have done it without you guys!"
