Got my final grade this morning...

Some of you might have realized that I've been rather, well, scarce around EA for the last eight weeks. If you don't know, I've been busting my @$$ in school just trying to keep my head above water. I've been putting in anywhere from 60-80 hours weekly between the intense amount of reading and the 25 page papers due every week.

I had a 4.0 before I took this class. Then, this class occurred, and I managed to carry a 94% for the term going into this final paper, which was worth twice what all of the other papers were.

This morning, I recieved my final grade. I took a 100%!

It is my understanding from my academic advisor that the general consensus of all students over the last few years in the MBA program is that this is the most difficult and time-consuming course that the program has to offer. She told me that if I can make it through this class with a good grade, I should be proud of myself.

While it isn't a 4.0/100%, my grade for the course is 96. I can't say that I'm "thrilled" because it wasn't a 100, but I guess, considering the amount of time and energy that I put into this course, I'm happy.

Anyhow, now I've got two weeks for Spring Break (my final paper was due Weds evening for this course), and I've got some stuff to do, but I'm going to relax for about a week and then get into my next course's textbooks next week.
