As you might have probably guessed, I'm a grade-conscious (GC) type of student who cares about her grades. If ever you're reading this post, then you definitely researched on google and wanted to learn information so I'd more or less think that we're on the same page if I say you're GC as well. (Peace!) I know did promise to blog about my Ateneo MBA life, so here are the subjects I've already taken and some tips for you my dear:
Ethics
Took Prof. Festin's class which I enjoyed. He is a lawyer by profession and one of the founders of Good Governance Advocates and Practitioners of the Philippines (GGAPP). It's a relatively benign subject because you only get to bring to class most of the time your thoughts and commentaries so don't fret! But I'll give you a clincher, if you get Festin, then you better prepare well for answering (theoretically) certain ethical dilemmas which his being an attorney definitely makes it a whole lot harder.
FinAcc
Prof. Solomon always FTW! Every year, rumors spread that it will be his last term but good thing until now, Prof. hasn't retired and I am even in his management accounting class. If you're someone like me who doesn't have solid accounting background, better group yourselves with people smarter than you (like a CPA? you bet!). It will most certainly help since a lot of the time, you'd get to submit assignments and report by group. Of course you still have to study and read the required book which for the record I did because his final exam is graded individually. No surprise there.
MaStat
I was so scared of this class because I have totally forgotten my statistics but it was a huge relief that Prof. Rafi is a super kind and considerate mentor. I liked how he is always focused on the business applications of statistics so all the more I was able to appreciate the value of this subject and erased my mindset that statistics is only for research analysis. In our class, he always assigns a group to report but at the end, he also teaches how to simplify life by using amazing excel functions so be sure not to miss those precious moments!
Leader
Another benign subject from a great prof. I recommend Prof. Yong for this subject. The class requirements are very reasonable and fun to do. The final project is a LifeBook, I guarantee you'll enjoy making it! =)
As I'm writing this, I'm halfway through my 4th term, in fact my midterm exam was just yesterday. I'm currently taking INFOTE and MANACC. Will post another blog once this term is over! =)
