As some of you know, I went back to school for retraining this fall. It's been over a decade since I did any serious academic study. So far my program is going pretty well, and I'm keeping up with the workload.

I had my first midterm last night, and I'm pretty sure that I nailed it. It was 4 short answers that we got to choose from 6 options and a mini case.

Well out of the short answer questions, I knew the answers to all of them, so was able to go with the ones I knew best. And after MBA school I can do cases in my sleep.

The best part was, I got to write the exam on a computer, which is how I'm used to writing, and so I didn't have to worry about making my handwriting legible.

I have one more exam today, that I'm also feeling pretty good about. Then I have a week off for reading week, 2 exams the week after that, and then another two the following week. It's not a bad schedule really.

Thanks everyone.

My second exam did not go nearly as well as my first. I did ok I think on the first half which was multiple choice - I figure I got 23/25. I really struggled with the short answer though. One question I was completely clueless on. But I think I did ok enough to pass.
