...seven to go. Exams that is. We had our first exam today (if you don't count the Strategy Management "surprise" test, which we probably should as it was worth 30% of the course mark). The exams this week are case study exams. Today was Human Resource Management and we had to write about the recruitment strategy for "NewCo". (That's the petrochemicals arm of BP, which is being soun off next year. They do actually call themslves NewCo at the moment.) Their head of HR came in to give us a briefing first, which means this was a live and current case. Unlike the traditional HBS case! We have one of those tomorrow for Marketing Management. It's the GolfLogix (GPS device) case. Of course, just because we can find out what GolfLogix did, doesn't mean that's the right thing to say they should do in the exam.
After Christmas, we have four real exams!
Better get on with some revision.
