I agree with @sarahming. I just took the MKT701 exam to try to carve out time for this project, and it's about the same difficulty as the others.

I am so done with this class.

I have a high A at the moment, and I'm not sure I'm going to pass this stupid class thanks to impossible deadlines and insanely high standards on trivia by my grader, Mr. APA himself.

I’m not even currently in this class and I’m dreading it. *sigh* looks like August is going to be a sad sad time. I would definitely recommend any newcomers to start with this class FIRST!

@mtntreks Sorry that completely sucks with APA. I'm 100% with you being over this course. I'm completely bullshi##ing the project. I've looked high and low for some information looking through LSUS Library resources and finding absolutely nothing

She's putting all these new "rules" yet isn't going to even look at the projects. As someone alluded above, she should have given these new "guidelines/rules" at the beginning. I haven't found my grader/coach to be unfair (or nitpicking APA) so far. I'd be pretty livid with APA nitpicking

The material is structured much much better (and the exams are fair), but I've pretty much tuned her out like Wren with MADM715. Just 4 more weeks but who is counting...

mtntreks that sucks about the academic coach I'm sorry. That is one thing about this program that has bothered me. I've never had a super nitpicky one but i've heard horror stories. Having inconsistent academic coaches is not fair to the students.

I overthought the first MKT701 exam and then aced the second. The exams are not that bad, its the writing.
And really this class is not that different from almost every other qualitative class in the program. Reading...exam/quiz...writing assignment...repeat for 7 weeks. What IS killer are the two big writing projects that she makes you do over the course of the 7 weeks.

To those who haven't taken it don't be that scared by it but definitely try to take the class by itself. James is a good instructor and very present but its hard for me to know what she wants and she really complicates things.

But hey were almost halfway done already! Hang in there everyone!
