Warwick MBA Oscars coming soon!

Monday, March 9th, 2009

The end of last week finished well. Another presentation for Corp Finance was concluded and it was good that I had done something a little different for this than everyone else; 10 groups had the same case so there was some repetition as you would imagine, but no-one had the same results, thus showing how important assumptions are in calculating WACC (great name!)

Thoughts now move to revision and to the reports that I need to do the week after. My modelling team are ahead of schedule for this so hopefully I will only have two individual assignments to complete by this time; one for Corporate Finance on Ford and one for Marketing on the computer games console industry.

The challenge has been to be as inclusive of the diversity within the group as possible, and I am enjoying it. The awards will be a highlight of the evening and catagory suggestions are flooding in!

It promises to be a great night and a good way to finish the term.  It will also be the last time that near everyone will be all together in the same place.  This terms seems to have flown past much quicker than last and I will be in reflective mood tomorrow when we meet in class, as a whole, for the last time.
