Strategic Management TECEP

[Moat]

I would have spent more time preparing for this exam. It is a capstone exam not the general DSST/CLEP; but too late now. Hopefully you are one of those who have great memory retention and will do well. It took me much longer to study and I still found it difficult. We are all so differnt it's hard to make a call on something like this. If you feel you were ready that's what counts. I've not seen the flashcards on this exam so could not give any insight as to whether they would help with the essay portion. I will say if you get a higher number of correct answers on the MC section due to the flashcards, you have better odds of passing as the essays are allowed partial credit. So even if you dont' know all the steps of an answer jot down what you do know and elaborate vs leaving that section blank.

Again, good luck to you!

i dont think i passed. maybe if the grader is nice- i'd say i got likely at least 25 pts in multiple choice. Of the 5 five-point short answers, I'd say I if i'm lucky i got 15 points. for the three essays. hm. at best: 20 pts .. so it really comes down to one or two multiple choice answers. I just dont know- i'll def come back when i have a grade.

and i actually didnt realize it was a capstone class until yesterday from reading this forum lol. i'm just taking it as a business elective because it was available as a test. i'd say total time spent studying was 12 hours. I managed to read the whole book in this time (minus the case studies), but i agree this is just too much to retain in one day. I could have put it off a few more days, but i knew i wouldnt have the opportunity i did today to really bear down into it. so i figured, while its fresh i might as well give it a go.

as far as the flashcards go, they were helpful in terms of memory, but not helpful at all towards the essay or short answers. let's hope i have some luck.
