As of Tuesday night, I finished my first semester of the Evening MBA program at the McCombs School of Business! Woo-hoo! All things considered, this has been a great semester and I can't believe how much I've learned in a matter of months. I had three classes this semester: Financial Accounting, Statistics and Decision Analysis, and Managing People and Organizations. Out of the three, Financial Accounting kicked my butt the hardest. Having never taken an accounting course, many of the concepts and verbage were foreign to me, so I struggled to keep up with the course lessons. The final exam was probably the hardest final exam I've ever taken in my life. Luckily I wasn't the only person lost--in fact, half-way through the exam the professor made everybody put their pencils down, take a deep breath, and then he apologized for making such a hard final exam. As a consolation, he gave us 15 extra minutes to work on it (out of three hours). Hah!
Next semester: Managerial Economics and Marketing Management. Hell yes.

Congrats Eddie! When I moved to Portland for the NSE I took two economics classes. I remember both the classes really being hard but I learned so much in both of those classes. I can't really say that I have retained any of the information but I remember loving the challenge.
Sweet. I've already forgotten everything about accounting and statistics.
Hah, just kidding. Kind of...
