Hardest class in my MBA program by far and the amount and difficulty of material is overwhelming.
Some of the topics:
All aspects of fixed income including duration and convexity
Immunization
Rebalancing
Horizon analysis
Spot, short, and forward rate calculations
APV, FTE, Capital Cash Flow, and WACC Valuation methods
Stockholder-Bondholder conflicts
Options and option strategies
Calculating Black Scholes using the cumulative normal density tables
Binomial Risk Neutral Valuation using Martingale probabilities
Hedging risk using derivatives
Put-Call Parity
Real Options
Bankruptcy process and strategies
Degree of operating, financial leverage
....the list goes on. Studying for this is soul crushing

Suck it up, b-school boy. You will get no sympathy from me!
Okay... maybe a little sympathy...

I had a similar class that was way over my head. I think I drained a few of the professors red ink pens over that semester. Thank god for partial credit, somehow ended up with a B.

Good stuff in these classes. The kind of knowledge you can actually make money with. I use what I learned to this day.

You gotta love the language huh? Every industry has it's own! Could we suggest Roseto Stone?

I loved that class. I'm getting excited just thinking about put-call parities and black-scholes.

This sounds like part of the Level 2 CFA Examination, except on that exam you can just punt the derivatives portion as long as you do well on everything else
Currency forwards and futures can also be a bear

Didn't the class just start?

One of my favorite and most important undergraduate classes at Tulane. Made interviews so much easier - from memorizing investopedia definitions to actually knowing what the hell I was talking about
