Probably not because it’s on the schedule for the Fall of 2012. There is a new Kelley degree for the class of 2016 that they talked about during DA weekend this year, but I was not in the auditorium for most of the presentation to hear about it.

A-100 really isn’t that bad though. She gives you about 15 prior midterms and finals to study with that are exactly like the midterm and final you will take. I know everyone has their own way of studying, but I am convinced that the only good way to study for that class is by taking those midterms. Some students on my floor were still doing the readings 3 days before the midterm. If you take the practice tests, the class isn’t that hard because you learn to recognize the concepts that she constantly tries to trip students up on. A lot of people talk about the “trick questions.” There are some tricky questions, but they test the same concepts on every exam (properly classifying interest as an operational cash outflow is a common “trick question”). If you do enough practice tests though you learn to recognize where the tricks are in the problems because they are essentially the same. If you study any other way, you don’t learn where the tricks are.

So it’s really not that bad if you just commit to taking the practice tests.
