Hey Jeaux Cool, I'm registered for ECON 705 for AP2. Wondering if I should rethink this - it appears to only be offered once a year.

I'm seeing that no textbooks are required for MADM 701 & ECON 705. Are textbooks required for any of the courses?
Posted on 12/7/17 at 2:19 pm to sejaxon
ECON wasn't a bad course. I paired it with MADM 760 and pulled A's in both. f you're not familiar with Excel I recommend doing so. I believe it is offered AP2 every semester. Have you made out a projected course path? That helped me with what to take and when. You can use the course carousel to do so.
I don't know about text for MADM 701 because I'm taking it in the Spring, but ECON 705 we were provided the text via Moodle.

The textbook for MADM701 was the WileyPlus textbook. When you buy the online book, you get access to the site where you complete the pre-tests. Not my favorite way to do it. I like physical books. Guess I'm old school.
This is the way it was last semester with MADM701

Who did you have for FIN 710?

@cheetos9. Who did you take for FIN 710? I took FIN701 last semester with vines and liked the class.

Just knocked out the ISDS 705 exam. No surprises gang. PDF lookup for the win!
Good luck to everyone testing today! Looking forward to the break!

Knocked out ISDS 705 earlier as well. No sweat.
Thankful to be done with this program and on to the next adventure. Unfortunately something has come up where I can't make the trip to Shreveport next weekend but I'll try to check you guys out on live-stream.
Good luck to all still going strong and congrats to those finishing up. Thanks to all who have participated in this forum and making this process a little smoother.
Sincerely,

I'd be open for suggestions on a Spring 2 elective if it were something without busy work. I figured the new ISDS 710 would be something I would have interest in, while getting a specialization in the mean time. None of the other spring 2 electives seem to fall into what I am looking for.
Same here Astro.
Plan on taking 702 & 710 this fall for specialization.

Congrats brentb! Well done!

I'm taking MKT 701 with Karen James next semester, anyone know what the textbook is for this class, would like to get a head start (the bookstore has the info blank at the moment).

Congrats brentb71! Nice to finish up with you. Sad we won't be able to meet next week at graduation but grateful for your friendship.

TigerDragon - They are changing the whole course up. Going to the free text book and no simulation option. It amazes me that LSUS thinks a $150 dollar book is going to deter someone away from the program. If I am paying 12k for a degree I want it to be top notch and current. Just my .02! You will have to wait to see what they come up with for materials.
Posted on 12/8/17 at 12:13 pm to GSMBA16
GSMBA16, I agree with you. I don't think going cheap on the books is a wise move. You get what you pay for and I want to have a top notch textbook. It's not hard to find deals on books anyways so very rarely do we need to pay retail. I paid less than $400 for all my books.

Who is everyone taking for MADM701?
Knotts or Williams?
Knotts or Williams?
Posted on 12/8/17 at 1:46 pm to FlaglerAlum2017
I'm registered for Williams. Is there any difference in the course between professors? I've heard nightmares about Williams and haven't had Knotts for a course yet. Anyone have an opinion on the two? I may make the change to Knotts if she's better than Williams

I'm glad you guys posted this. I just flipped over to Knotts. Knotts was absentee in MADM752, but it wasn't a train wreck. I've only heard bad things about Williams, so I'm out!
Now if they'd just add MKT701 to AP2, then I can finish a term early.
I agree on the books too. I want good materials, not cheap crap. A couple hundred bucks one way or the other doesn't matter. The only good thing is they've stopped that Cengage nonsense.

Decide to pull the trigger and do the same. Since I'm pairing it with another course I figured this would be better. Knotts has much better reviews on RMP than Williams.
Posted on 12/8/17 at 3:14 pm to Jeaux Cool
So consensus is Knotts for MADM 701?
Posted on 12/8/17 at 5:14 pm to mtntreks
I'm with you MTNTREKS, I just dropped Williams, willing to take my chances with Knotts!
