Topics include financial analysis and planning, time value of money, valuation, capital budgeting, risk/return trade-offs, cost of capital, and capital structure.

I don’t have much luck following a definite study schedule. I give up if an assignment is difficult. I have difficulty determining important points in lectures. Before class starts, I review yesterday’s lecture notes. I waste time because I am not organized. I focus entirely on my work when I study. I feel uncomfortable reading a chapter unless I’ve read all the headings and the summary first. I don’t bother taking notes on lectures. I get sleepy when I study. I check my lecture notes to fill in any missed words soon after the lecture. I seldom hear a lecture that is well organized. I enjoy learning. Before I begin an assignment, I estimate how long it will take me and then try to beat the clock. Before answering an essay question, I organize what I am going to write.
