Average for most business 3rd year classes is close to 80%. Good luck trying to get A's or even a B+.
I have been getting A's and B+'s for many lower level business classes, but now I am expecting C+'s and B-'s. My fucking god, where are the fucking slackers when you need one. | Just curious, how are the slackers filtered out ?o.0 If I remember correctly, you only need around 2.5 GPA to stay in the business faculty  |

Good luck with exams by the way!  | Access to the fitness center is now connected to your sfu ID. Scan at desk, and go workout. Seems likely they have clips now so you can attach it to your shirt and whatnot Posted via RS Mobile | |

Not too hard really. However, some people may have realized that business is not their interest so they go into other faculties. So now you are left with those interested in the subject and hardworking keeners.
I am taking 2 UD classes and both have close to 80% avg. The profs never told me how the marks are to be distributed. But apparently, UD courses distributes more A's and B's according to some members here on revscene. I guess I will see when the time comes.

That and the fact that I have 478 the next morning at 830 means I have very little time to study. Oh, and I also didn't take any days off work because things have been busy lately.... studying begins at 6pm daily and ends at 2 to 3am :P Probably only going to spend 1.5 more days on it and the rest of the time will go to 478. Reviewed most of the pre-midterm stuff, and gladly I get most of it. Had a little trouble with the more complex tree diagrams but will take a further look later. To do list: review holt winters forecasting, post midterm material, read the article twice, do the midterm review 1x, and final review 2 or 3x.
I hate how in my last semester (spring), my final schedule was the best thing ever. 3 exams, 5 and 8 days apart. Got so much studying done and didn't have to alternate and balance between courses. This semester just blows.
And how's your 336 studying coming along?

For 336, I feel like I'm gonna be screwed for the material after the midterm. Seems like a lot of the difficult stuff requires excel to do, so I'm not too sure what we could be tested on.

It's so hard to find the information you need for the topics especially if you are doing Smart Meters. Omg he totally butchered our report submission 2. Not one A so far in any of the assignments.
