Difficulty between lower and upper level courses

[burbuja0512]

My capstone class was titled "Strategic Management 499." It would have probably been very difficult if I hadn't already known a lot of the concepts being discussed. It was a culmination of all of the business courses that were part of my concentration. So, more difficult in the sense that if you took that as your first and only business course, you would have to learn a heck of a lot of new ideas.

However, it wasn't any more difficult than any other class I have taken. It was a challenge to learn to navigate an online course with multiple concurrent assignments and group work. I would say that the hardest part of the class for me was learning to deal with the online aspects of the class and also learning APA citation, which was new to me.

I've always thought that a class covering a topic that interests you is going to be a lot easier than one you find boring. I can spend hours studying for something I like, but dread even minutes of study for something I dislike.
