Thanks guys. Looking now to see what else is open.

If you haven't already dropped ACCT or are still on the fence, I'd chime in to agree that you should seriously consider doing so. Wk-7 is the heaviest workload and if I'm not mistaken, you MUST take the final on a specific day. Not cool if that turns out to be the day you have lots of stuff planned with the kids. I don't have experience in ISDS 702 or MADM 760 so can't help there. I'll give unsolicited touchy-feely words though that provide a counter-thought to BusinessKnight...

Most of us are taking the program to, in some indirect way, benefit our families. If you can't find a suitable class that works with the family trip you already have planned, what do you lose by taking the 1/2 semester off? We all want to be done, but seven weeks delay in the grand scheme of things? Set that next to the prospect of being totally stressed out and distracted while on the trip. I just did a Disney trip this past summer and that "fun" trip was all the stress I could handle. I can't imagine dealing with that and trying to create life-long happy memories for the kids while being worried about putting together massive papers or studying for heavily-weighted cumulative finals, etc...

Ultimately, I took the 7-wk term off because of the 1-wk trip. I debated with myself about how wise that was... until I was on the trip. If there is an option though that lets you get wk-7 done or 80% done before you head out... win/win. Good luck with everything.
