How difficult are those courses ? Are the exams/quizzes based on the assignments/samples or are these courses ones in which you have to " think outside the box".

By that I mean are the questions similar to the assignments/samples except that there is a twist in which you have never actually done before.

I am only interested in Finance or MIS. I need advice about these finance courses before I commit to this concentration and finish my degree.


You might want to take 315 or 316 before declaring. The only reason why i say that is because Im in the same position as you. Been committed to doing finance/banking since HS. And now I regret not getting into accounting.

What is the ticket price if you do end up being ticketed? Is it under 30 if you pay within 72hrs?

My 150 mt was 30 marks that had two 12 mark questions. Didn't know how to do
one of them.. A bunch of people thought that question was hard so I hope a lot of people fail huehue
Did almost all the textbook questions but she put that question which only came up in an assignment with solutions posted the day before.. :okay:
would bet my family jewels I failed. Girl sitting in front of me said she got everything right so fuck.

how was your mt?

Yeah, my midterm was out of 30 as well. Just got it back today, got the average which was 66%. I did only a couple textbook questions but mainly studied off my lecture notes, going to start slowly reviewing for 150 since I wanna ace the final :fullofwin:

I actually got there at 12 30, but stayed in the car for half an hour

I don't start the count until I leave the car :ilied:

Messerschmitt 03-28-2013 07:24 AM

So how does it usually work. You get at least 2 hrs after you get your tires chalked? Of course you don't really know when you got them chalked unless you are stalking your own car.

You have to do assignments (there's answer key provided), because there is a random chance that the TA will pick you to present (worth 5% you can present as many times as you want, TA will pick highest mark). Each class 2~ people will present, and the TA will present another problem himself.

From my experience, the midterm was really difficult (you really needed to understand the concepts, and be able to apply it), and there wasn't enough time. The final isn't much easier, but I found it to be more fair (the type of questions he asked/and we were given more time).

I ended up getting a B/B+, but this course is definitely harder than bus251.

Thanks. So does he have those online assignments(wiley plus) for marks like in BUS 251?

No assignments.

Iirc.... 40% midterm, 10% presentation in tutorial and attendance (easy presentation... 5-10mins, no need to dress up. Essentially you are provided the answer key for a question and you just guide the class through the question by highlighting areas that are tricky and also relating it back to the real world and how managers can use this information, etc....)\, 50% final (cumulative). Midterm will be multiple choice with 3-4 written quantitative questions and 1-2 written qualitative questions.
