489 Business Policy and Strategy (Warning)

I recently completed this class and must say that it was unquestionably one of the most challenging experiences I've ever had. The work is incredibly lengthy, and it also requires a high standard of quality. I didn't expect it to be this challenging. My advice to those who need this class is that you'll need a lot of coffee and time to complete it! Don't feel discouraged, but rather set aside extra time to focus on completing this class!

It's designed to be the capstone type course. I've taken a similar course as a grad student and business strategy courses in general are more on the difficult side. They require a great deal of critical thinking and putting together topics you've studied that you may not realize work together. This course has been discussed in great length on here and the UMPI Discord.

That's the main reason you want to usually go in numerical order, from 1's, 2's, 3's then finish with the 4's... You're taking a 4th year class, it's going to be more work than the lower level ones. Most would be more work and writing altogether, there are sometimes the weird ones that are just the same as another upper level but 3rd year class. Take your energy, time to complete these to get a better grade and learn more overall...
