I am back in Chicago and jetlagged terribly, but somehow made the plunge back into school life. In my enthusiasm to load up on soft courses, I seem to have taken 3 courses, two of which have a big overlap.
However, the professors are all stellar. There’s Ann McGill for Marketing Strategy, Marianne Bertrand for Competitive Strategy, and there’s Abbie Smith for Financial Statement Analysis.
While there’s some overlap between McGill and Bertrand, each of them has something unique to offer.
What can I say about Marianne Bertrand’s course. At the end of the session every week, i feel so mentally fatigued. This is one course where she forces you to constantly think ..the entire 3 hours, while she paces up and down with sheer energy. Its no surprise that everytime after her class, I come home to unwind with my vinho do porto and some curry !
