Yay! I'm almost 1/3 done with my Masters. Why, almost 1/3? Because I still have to wait a week or two before they release the grades. I don't think I did bad this semester.
For this particular semester, I enrolled in TM 241 (Technology Acquisition and Assimilation) and TM 205 (Financial Analysis for Technology Managers). I thought of not taking a Saturday class because I missed having a regular weekend. The only downside was that I have to be at the office early, twice a week. And the bigger downside was I committed myself to two consecutive night classes! I think my school load would have been better if I noticed right away the class schedule I enlisted in.
TM 241 was handled by Dr. Posadas and provided a more in-depth knowledge on a section discussed in TM 201. The class was pretty much the same with TM 201, except that instead of submitting a single paper, we were required to do a presentation and two major papers. Extracting the necessary data for the presentation was a bit difficult because we do not have the capacity to interview the company we chose.
TM 205, was more math-y. I'd like to think of this subject as the "panghatak ng grade" kind of subject. The midterm was easy (I got a really good score. hehe). We hardly had classes so you have to really study by yourself. The topics were easy, in my opinion. At least, the topics covered for the midterms. It is like a repetition of CE22. After midterms, I think we had just one class meeting to discuss CAPM and that's pretty much it. I'm not really sure if I learned anything new with the subject. It was really just how the class was handled by the professor. He was really busy and tired. The course was a bit frustrating because the speaker assigned to our group did not come. And we only had a week to prepare because we really had no idea on how to proceed with the presentation/paper requirement. He did offer to have another week to work on the presentation but we just wanted the subject to be done and be over with.
Here's to the remaining 2/3 of my graduate school! Cheers!
