Exam #3 (4-20-10)

I thought the exam was going to be easy because it was only on two chapters, but there was plenty of material to study. Most of it was words that we had to know, but also some concepts. I answered all of the questions and knew that I could have improved on some of the explaining. If it would have been a multiple choice without any short essay questions I would have been able to figure it out. For this test I am sure I lost points on the short essay section. I got a B on the exam, which was reasonable because it was a stressful week for me. The exams are well written and correctly formatted. They are not hard it just seems like there is allot of information to know.

Chapter Eight (4-15-10)

The class went by fast because since the section was short many students were able to present a news report. The exam is next class session and I have an exam on another class on Monday so it is going to be hard studying for both. I also have a finance exam, which I do not look forward to. I hope I will be able to manage all my time wisely so I can study and do well for all my exams. Usually I know when the semester is ending because presentations and exams start piling up. This semester is going by fast. In the beginning it would go by slow and I was able to enjoy my breaks, but now during my breaks I do school related assignments.

Chapter Eight (4-13-10)

The assignments for this class are both interesting and educational because we learn new programs that we will all encounter in the future. Its good to know them as well because it makes your life easier having your data in an organized matter and easily accessed. I enjoy completing the assignments and I wish we could get some more, but four is enough for the class. There is already allot of information to know and with more assignments I would have to spend more time on this class. I enjoy the class and its both educational, interesting, and funny too at times. I was familiar with chapter 8 because I learned some of the vocab in other business classes.

Chapter Seven (4-8-10)

So I actually figured out the last questions of the assignment and it was pretty easy. I ended up getting 120 points out of 100, which I needed because my last test grade was bad. I presented an article as well. I have some hard trouble finding articles because I cannot seem to find some really interesting ones. I was hoping I would discover new developments that would be more like a surprise, but they are mostly about improving what is already made. Chapter six and seven exam is already coming up next week so I will try to get a head start on the studying. I have no questions as of now.

Chapter Seven (4-6-10)

I was in class trying to finish the assignment, but I gave up. Instead I was listening to the lecture, which was straight-forward and taking notes. I don't know why, but I had allot of trouble figuring out the question #4 and #5. I would just play with the wizard, but it did not seem correct. When I went to your office hours I was hoping to get some more hints, but I didn't. I was surprised that I had trouble with those questions because for the last computer class I had we were asked those type of questions. I remembered the query part, so the first assignment was really easy for me.

Chapter Six (3-25-10)

I finished my second assignment for this class during spring break and plan on getting it checked after class today. It was not hard for me so hopefully I get it right. I did not do the extra credit part of the assignment and plan on working on that today as well. I have an article which I will present on today so I am ready for class. I have no questions so far, but Imight for chapter seven. I look forward to the Excel assignments because its interesting and I learn more new things about the two computer software programs that we use.

Chapter Six (3-23-10)

We went over the exam and started a new chapter. At least for me it was good that we went over the exam because of my low score. After getting my exam back I wanted to really focus so I was writing notes on all the important points. I also turned in my first assignment which I did well on. I hope to start on the second assignment during spring break. I am really excited that I get to get some good sleep and work on homework assignments and review. I understood everything that was mentioned in the first section of chapter six so I have no questions so far.
