This represents the final 3% of our sports marketing grade... I'm just amazed...

If April showers bring May flowers, what do May flowers bring? (Points: 10)

May 1st is commonly known in the American culture as (Points: 10)

A famous children's rhyme: Rain, rain, go away, come again (Points: 10)

Is sports marketing the best class? True/false.

Do bees get pollen from flowers? True/false.

:sigh: I feel like this has insulted my intelligence... but I'll take the three percent... :D

I also don't know the answer to the May 1st one. Umm... sports marketing. The major itself is an insult to intelligence. :p

The only thing I know May 1st as is May Day.

What a joke. Guess all the cracks we made in our engineering classes about business majors was true.

Are you getting a COmp Sci degree and taking that as an elective?

the international, exchange, or other students not born in the U.S would be at a disadvantage for couple of those questions
I wouldn't be too happy if I was in their shoes

Yes, Info Systems:)

No, Electrical Engineering:) I just needed a general elective and I wanted to take something easy. I just went over to the business school and got a list of their summer I course offerings. MISU301, 8AM. Perfect.

business classes are so easy.. I would have at least a 3.75 GPA if I was in a business undergrad program since my freshman year
I took a course futures and options market (a senior level finance course) with zero finance background and still passed
I wasn't even aware of all the pre requirements that it had.

Shouldn't those be yes/no, not true/false?
"The first one is true, is sports marketing the best class" makes no sense

That certainly varies from school to school.

I go to a highly competitive private business school where the courses are much more difficult than any state school business courses.

I love marketing. :p

My class was similar a few times... but I learned an incredible amount from my professor; she was more focused on getting you to .learn something than grading based on rote memorization. With marketing you really have to understand the concepts and (to a lesser extent) applications of those concepts or theories on the public. Fun time, it's too bad that no college around here offers a degree in it.
