However, this teacher was taking care of human behavior class. It makes more sens to expect pages and pages from such teacher ;-) IS, I'd say that you better have a MBA schedule established before starting it. You need to be able to spot time where you will be able to read and write your papers. Talking to your classmates makes it easier. You would be impressed to see how people from other banks became great ally while being competitors in the day to day life ;-) Fabulously Broke,

Masters of Business Administration? I guess.. then I have to question why he asked for more than 10 pages. All the business classes I ever attended wanted me to get to the point, and if I could do it in less than 10 pages, we got points for it, rather than if we rambled on for 30 pages. We actually got deducted points for going over the limit the professor set. They told me that in business (and I've found it to be true) that if you can't get to the point, and lay out a convincing, solid argument with as few words as possible, then you're not meant for business. It's just strange to me that a business professor would ask for more.... :) <b><a href="http://fabulouslybrokeinthecity.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Fabulously Broke in the City</a> "<i>Just a girl trying to find a balance between being a Shopaholic and a Saver.</i>"</b> Sorry, it was an MBA program right?
