Since Bus 254 is a requirement for 312, do I need to have a good understanding of the 254 material to do well in 312. If it is then I am fucked since I am struggling a bit in this class.

Is 312 a separate material of its own ?


Anyone in BUS 254 with masood. I AM SO FUCKED FOR HIS MIDTERM.

Finance 312 is nothing like 254. If you take it with George Blazenko and put in some effort, the class is a joke. Super easy, open book. Do all his past exams and you'll own it up. The class is essentially a few big calculations that you have to understand and practice a lot and you'll be fine. Very straight forward.

I'm a TA for 254 (not this semester, working a FT summer position) and I can tell you 254 and 312 have nothing in common. Pre-req's often have little to nothing related.

Never TA'd for Masood before but I can tell you from my TAing experience that this course requires a lot of understanding. The questions on the exams aren't straight forward and often require you to think beyond the homework/lecture examples. But if you know each of the concepts and calculations inside-out, you'll do good on it.

Feel free to shoot me a PM before your final if you have any questions about the concepts or want a few examples/methods that I used in my tutorials.

edit: oh feel free to pm me about any business course/elective in general. I'm heading towards my 5th year so I've taken most of them :P
