A Grueling Week Ahead….Survival of the Fittest

The 2012 cohort is about to head in to its first major battle that is sure to prove ones capacity to deal with mental, physical and emotional challenges. My question is….Who will survive?

The ingredients on next week’s agenda are as follows: 2 papers, 2 mid-term exams (Finance and Accounting), a major negotiation, and 2 huge projects in Economics and International Business. As you can probably imagine, the panic has spread amongst the students like wildfire. Some students are clamoring to stay ahead, some are just taking it as it comes and some are just outright in denial. Whatever the coping method, next week is coming and it will take no prisoners.

How each student tackles next week will be a true testament of his or her ability to persevere not only in this program but also in the “real world.” As for me, you can say that I am in the category of fighting to stay ahead. I believe that only through preparation and a strong mental capacity can I accomplish my goal of achieving excellence.

So…..Let the fight begin!!! Bring it on baby!
