My Thoughts Regarding The Second Exam in MKT 351

There was a lot of studying I had to do to get ready for this exam. The exam was going to be based on chapters 6,7, and 8. I read every chapter four times each. I am the type of student that would rarely get anything if I would just read the chapter once and that's it. I am so envious of people that could do that. It seemed that my hard work paid off. I was able to answer most of the questions. However, in the extra credit, I had some trouble with. It was amazing that one lady in the class finished the exam in 20 minutes. Either she is very gifted and fast or she didn't know anything in the exam and just wanted to hand it in to get out of there. I wanted to give Prof. Cripps a big thanks for not giving us any exams. It helps to take the stress out of a class.

I Completed a Report that was Virtually Impossible

I am very pleased with myself that I finally completed my report for my MKT 351 class. When I first aware about the report at the beginning of this semester, I thought it was virtually impossible to do. To say the least, it was quite a challenging assignment. By the end of writing this report, I wrote 15 typed written pages. This was the most I have ever written before.

A classmate in my MKT 351 Class Said Something Very Entertaining this Week

A classmate of mine in my MKT 351 class said something very entertaining this week. First of all, he works in a sneaker store. It was funny to hear him mention that he hates it when customers ask him stupid questions. He claims that most of the questions that they ask the answers are right in front of them if only they can read. Also, he said that they constantly ask him the same questions all the time. One of the crazy moments of his job is when he deals with a customer and he measures his foot it is a size 8 1/2. Yet, he insists on getting a size 13 sneaker.

My Professor mentioned something very interesting in my MKT class this week

My professor talked about something very interesting in class this week in my marketing class. He was talking about sexual harassment. He started it off by when he first became VP of a particular airline, this woman was at a company party, and she was grinding up to just about every guy at the party. Later, he heard that this lady and a man had sex in a private room within the office. Afterwards, she claimed that she was raped. My professor thought it was hard to believe because why wouldn’t she report it to the police first. However, he had to handle it. So, he asked the guy what happened, and he admitted that he had sex with her. So, he fired him because it was against company policy to have sex in the office premises.

My Test Results from my First Exam

On Wednesday April 2, I had my MKT 351 class. We had a speaker come in who works in the provost office. He wanted to find out what we thought was wrong with York College. The main issue that some of my classmates complained about was some inefficient workers in the registrars office. Also, we got our tests back that day. I thought maybe I got somewhere in the 70's. When I got my test back, I was surprised that I got a 94.

A Reflection of my MKT 351 Class

I am going to mention something a little different this week because I did not have my MKT 351 class since a Mondays schedule replaced Wednesday classes. At first, I thought the assignments that our professor gave us to do would have been almost impossible. However, as I started to understand more of the assignment, I realized that it wasn't as difficult as I had thought. I have found the professor's lectures in that class were very interesting.

My Class Experiences_6

On March 19, I had my first exam in MKT 351. No, it wasn't the type of exam that I mentioned in a prior post that was a cumulative effort that we used this clicker to register our answers on this screen for all of us to see how the majority answered for which question. This was an actual exam where we didn't know how the other classmates answered them. It consisted of 50 plus 5 extra credit questions. I studied very hard for that exam. I read each chapter that was going to be on the test three times. Also, he informed us which pages we should focus on. I read those pages another three times. When I took the exam, I was pleased that I was familiar with most of the questions. However, some of the questions were tricky. Overall, I think I did well in the exam.

My Class Experiences_5

On March 12, I performed a presentation with my group for MKT 351 class. I was very worried that we wouldn't be prepared for it. We at first had 5 groups members. One of them dropped the class. The other group member lets say put in a nice way has some issues. The most important meeting we had together which was on Tuesday the day before the presentation, she didn't even show up. One of our group members called her to find out if she was coming. She said due to her apartment not having any heat. She probably wouldn't be able to make it that day. She told her that she would call her back in about 10 minutes. After 30 minutes, we realized she wasn't going to call her back. I personally thought that excuse couldn't be anymore lame. Later, we decided to vote her out of the group because we had to know what everyone was doing for our presentation the next day and to prepare the powerpoint slides according to that. We went to the professor who was fortunately in his office, and he agreed with us. During the day of our presentation, I was very surprised that we did an excellent presentation. Afterwards several people in the class told us we did very well.

My Class Experiences_4

On Thursday March 6, I had ENG 384. I wanted to comment on the trials and tribulations that I had trying to put my web template together. First of all, I wanted to say that the professor's instructions on what we had to do on his web site were very clear. For the most part, I was able to follow step by step what I had to do. However, some things weren't coming out right that I didn't see that could encounter in his tutorials. Despite this thanks to the professor's great knowledge of the web, he was able to solve my problems. Also, now my web template is up and running.

My Class Experiences_3

On Wednesday February 27, I had my MKT 351 class. We were going to have a quiz that day. During the quiz we had a unique approach to it that I never had a professor do before. It was quite an interactive experience. The quiz was being shown on the screen through a projector which we would see the questions, and a clicker was given to us that would remotely feed the answer that we chose onto the screen. Then it would show the percentages we chose based on a, b, c, or d. After that we would right down the answer we chose and later hand it in. Unfortunately, the tests won't be like that. I wish all my classes could have tests in that way. It would take the pressure out of school.

My Class Experiences_2

Today, I will be meeting my group at 5:00 for my MKT 351 regarding a group assignment we have to do which I don't know what the heck we are supposed to do. I hope that some other members of the group do know what to do. Last week, we were supposed to meet at 5:00, but no one showed up. It would be a great disappointment if no one would show up today except me.

My Class Experiences_1

Yesterday, I completed my first homework assignment for MKT 351. I was so pleased with myself that I completed it. There was six questions that had to be answered for that assignment. When I was in class yesterday, I was told by my professor that we only had to do the first two questions. I didn't write much about the first two questions so hopefully he will consider that I work more in the other questions and give me a decent grade for that assignment.

My Class Experiences

This will be my actual first blog post. I am going to write about a class experience that is getting me worried. I am taking MKT 351. The professor seems like a good teacher. I read his reviews on ratemyprofessor.com and they all gave him great ratings. So, I was looking forward to taking this class. Also one of my business professor's recommended that I would take this class. However to my dismay this seems like a hard class with a lot of work to do. I will admit I don't want a class where I will have a lot of work to do maybe that is the lazy side of me. Although, I do feel that I am a hard working student. Perhaps it's that I don't think I should have that much work in one particular class because I need to devote my time for my other classes as well . We have 2 exams in this class and one cumulative final. I feel it's crazy to give us a cumulative final because the first test is modules 1-5 the second exam is modules 6-9 then the final is all of that cumulatively, and I think that is crazy. I am the type of person that would read each module 4 times. So when I study for the final I won't have the time to review all those modules by reading them 4 times again to properly study for it. Also, he is giving us a crazy long writing assignment after we have done all the things he wants on it, he estimates that our assignment should be about 25 pages. I never had a writing assignment that long before. Plus I don't know how I will be able to write about some of the questions presented in the writing assignment. Also, we have some homework assignments of some case studies to do. I was working on it today and some of the questions were so confusing. The other thing we have to do is a group assignment. I am not even sure what the heck I will have to do with that yet. I am considering to drop this class but I will see.
