Any insights on this pairing for next term? I can finish out the program if I take MKT 701 and FIN 701 together next term. FIN would be with Vines, and I've read great things about him. MKT 701 is with James, and I've read that one can be challenging.
Any thoughts? Words of encouragement? Am I nuts?

I can’t speak for MKT but for FIN 701, if you have a little bit of a finance knowledge I don’t think you will need to spend a lot of time on this class. He has 4 open book test, no other work. His study guide lays out most of the information and his zoom sessions he holds several times a week and you can ask anything you need help with.
I’m currently in 730 and really enjoying it with Choi. What’s the feedback on Hseish in 710? How difficult is his class?

Normally I would say no but it may be worth it to finish up. If you are math capable FIN 701 won't be too demanding. You'll have a full workload + some but I would probably do it also if it meant knocking off a session.

Vantix,
I did those two last term and got two A's. It is very doable but requires effort as with some of the others. You can read about Vines' methods here and for MKT 701 I had Dr. Darrat and he was very lenient with the scoring, so it was an easy A. You should do fine if you have done well with the others. My .02 cents.

I took Mkt 701 with James and Fin 701 with Vines. If you work full time I wouldn't recommend the double. I spent 15 hours a week on Mkt and 10-15 on Fin. James had us write something each week plus a attend a group project that met each week. That took a lot of my time, and then I had to read 2 chapters for the tests.
For Fin, others may find it easier that I did. What I did was take the notes Vines gave us and then add everything to them - formulas, examples, definitions...it made the quizzes easier as they were open book/note. You need to write all the answers in your own words while using his definitions and the text definitions. Figuring out the problems took me a lot of time too as I wanted to know how to recognize them on the tests.
