Time to breath
Finally, the worst of it is over — for now. I just handed in the last of a stream of assignments this morning. Surprisingly, we received marks for two of our exams today. I suppose it was a whole week ago, but it seems like yesterday 
I did about as I expected on Accounting and much better than I expected on Statistics. I guess that ol’ Math degree helped me out a bit after all…
Last week we also handed in a major group assignment, and did two group presentations. Our group put a lot more work and hours into these than I thought would be necessary, but I was really happy with the end result. Hopefully the mark we receive will be somewhat proportional to how much we killed ourselves working on it. I recall one night last week when I was up until about 5am, then back at school at 10am-10pm, then at school the next day from 9am to 12:30am. Much of the rest is a blur…
So with last week, we finished up 3 of our 8 courses. Accounting, Statistics and Economics are more or less done, but the contents get integrated as we go forward. This week we’ve already started Operations and Marketing, and start Finance tomorrow. The remaining courses, Organizational Behaviour and Strategy, continue throughout the entire 4-month term and are related to the other subject.
So after about a month and a half, things are still going well, and I’m still very happy I decided to put my career on hold and go back to school. We’ll see if I’m still singing this tune come November
