    Ah alright, I'll suck it up.

    Just tired of this program, ready to move on from it.

    M&A is a good course but is demanding. Much easier if you have Lehar (I personally really like Alfred actually, hilarious dude. )

    NV law sounds interesting too.

    Very unimpressed, but I've caused a huge stink and rallied a bunch of students to write letters regarding the professor so hopefully it gains some traction.

    Just added my courses for fall and winter, just looking for some feedback..

    Hoping to do the following;

    Fall - OBHR 721 Advance Leadership, FNCE 765 Mergers & Acquisitions, ENCI 699 Law for Project Managers
    Winter - BSEN 761 Ethics & The Professional Manager, FNCE 759 Investment and Portfolio Management

    I know M&A was highly recommended, any feedback on the others?

    Thanks gents
    " OBHR 721 Advance Leadership"
    My prof was amazing, but holy is this class brutal. Writing a "Scientific" business paper. Completely useless and would never have any practical application.
    FNCE 759 was really simple from what I hear. M&A you already know.

    Went with the sustainable development block week and New Venture Law. Nice to be registering for my final classes but just wish that summer courses were not such shit that I could finish before the fall.

    Nice, I'll be in New Venture Law too.

    Sustainable Development was a pretty decent course.

    Sustainable development with indigenous people?

    Just finished it block week. David Lertzman is great. Content is kind of boring but sparks some good discussion and thinking.

    It was Strategies for Sustainable Development. Content was actually pretty interesting - creating shared value (Michael Porter), impact investing, carbon credits, circular economy, stakeholder engagement, etc.

    Back to work full time, will only have 4 classes to finish come fall. So figure 2+2 and graduate by April 2020.

    Unless I fail OPMA, lol. Got 67.5% in the course, prof wouldn't bump me up to a B- and said it would be moving up the chain. Fuckers better give me that 2.5% for putting me through that horrible experience.
    Got my B- after fighting for several weeks. Holy fuck, what a bunch of miserable cunts. Since the professor was such a fucking bitch, and wouldn't budge I had to take it up the line and they said sorry, but you will have to re-take it. So I appealed based on re-grading everything from the course and had to argue my short answers on all my exams and my written work for assignments. Managed to bump up to 74%.

    I honestly couldn't recommend this program to anybody. If you've got half a brain, have a decent understanding of business in general and don't need the letters to advance - stay the fuck away.

    I would never do an MBA at U of C on my own dime.

    Glad to hear you got your credits.

    I think the main issue with their program is they let everyone and their dog in. That cascades into so many things, like that they can’t have the good profs teach every section. To them watering down the content to meet the lowest common denominator. To you having to deal with people in groups completely out of their depth.

    The content itself varies very little by program or university. Standards however are the differentiator.

    But the program is a cash cow so it will never change. I think I would seriously discount the university as a credential for future hires though.

    Tough to say, I have had some great profs and some terrible ones where you could tell they would be better at teaching an undergrad course. Kanwal Bokhari comes to mine as the worst prof I have encountered.

    As far as students I find it depends on the program. I think the accelerated and evening students I have worked with have been good...now the day time students.. that's another story.
