Business courses to pair up/avoid during one semester

College Majors Business Majors
1

<p>For the upcoming spring 2012 semester I’m planning on taking these
CGS 2100 Computers in Business
MAC 2233 Business or Elementary Calculus I
QMB 2100 Business & Economic Statistics I
MAN 3025 Principles of Management
MAR 3023 Basic Marketing</p>

<p>From what I have heard:</p>

<ol>
<li>Don’t take too many math classes in one semester, for example: QMB 2100 Business & Economic Statistics I + MAC 2233 Business or Elementary Calculus + FIN 3403 Principles of Finance in one semester would be too much.</li>
<li>Take these two together MAN 3025 Principles of Management & MAR 3023 Basic Marketing</li>
</ol>

<p>Any other recommendations of what classes I should take together or what classes I should avoid pairing up to minimize my work loads. I still have these left before major courses</p>

<p>CGS 2100 Computers in Business
ENC 3250 Professional Writing
MAC 2233 Business or Elementary Calculus I
QMB 2100 Business & Economic Statistics I
QMB 3200 Business & Economic Statistics II
BUL 3320 Law & Business I
FIN 3403 Principles of Finance
ISM 3011 Information Systems in Organizations
MAN 3025 Principles of Management
MAR 3023 Basic Marketing
GEB 4890 Strategic Mgmt/Decision Making</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>I made the mistake of taking our Junior level Finance and Intermediate Accounting this semester…not cool.</p>

3

<p>When you’re talking about Junior level Finance, Is that FIN 3403 Principles of Finance? What’s the course objective like, do you read the text, learn keywords, and get tested on that or is there some math problems also?</p>

4

<p>It’s Finance…of course there is math. That’s like saying:</p>

<p>“I’m taking a Literature class. Will there be reading?”</p>

<p>Math isn’t difficult but there is math.</p>

5

<p>Man up and do Calculus I, not business calc or survey of calc.</p>

6

<p>^^
Depending on the school, business calc may not be easier than calc 1.
They teach the elements that you will need to know in business courses (partial derivatives, taylor series expansions, lagrange multipliers, …)</p>

<p>@dollarbill: dude business majors are not required to take calculus I :s</p>

8

<p>^^ this is dependent on the school.
Generally, most respectable business schools will require at least 2 semesters of calculus.</p>
