What's the exam on?

― Cathy (Cathy), Sunday, 10 October 2004 11:04 (twenty-one years ago)

Strategic and Organizational Management.

have done minimal study

Strategic and Organizational Management

there's irony here.

The best plan is to just post some threads on a message board instead of doing any studying.

Cheat motherfucker cheat!

You could probably read the Essentials of Strategic Management in 3 days. And just remember PEST and 5 Forces Analysis and things like that.

yeah, it's a very waffly subject....

PEST
Porters 5 forces
SWOT
7S / Happy Atom
BCG Matrix
Theory X and Theory Y organization
Lewin's forcefield???

but need to memorise stuff some people said, to make me have the so-called "graduateness" the examiners like to see.

Do the exam the day before in the allotted time and see how you do. I doubt you'll have the actual exam questions, so just make them up - you can probably guess what they are, right? When I took exams at the beginning of this summer I found the hardest thing to do was to keep to the time limits. It helped me a great deal to try and do it in precisely the time I'd be allowed.

CATWOE is my favourite management theory acronym.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Sunday, 10 October 2004 17:51 (twenty-one years ago)

Weltanschauung is the best thing about CATWOE

― Tannenbaum Schmidt (Nik), Sunday, 10 October 2004 18:09 (twenty-one years ago)

CATWELTANSCHAUUNG should be an acronym too.

you have no idea just how close this very thing was to being my default law-school/bar-exam studying strategy, martin.

its 6:30am; it got 1/5 of my study plan done last night; i'm calling in sick today to get more done.

― Tannenbaum Schmidt (Nik), Monday, 11 October 2004 04:35 (twenty-one years ago)

although i am also actually sick with ManFlu. Coughs and shakes.

― Tannenbaum Schmidt (Nik), Monday, 11 October 2004 08:20 (twenty-one years ago)

but I know now about Management Information Systems
