Exams approaching


The 18th (1 week today) will be a day to forget for all of us on the MBA.
We have exams. All 3 subjects studied so far on the same day.
Economics and Statistics and Applied Mathematics in the morning.
Accounting in the afternoon.
Accounting and Stats and Maths are open book. Not a lot of help. You have the information (a lot) but it is the application of the information that matters.
Economics is closed book.
The studying has picked up a pace.
The going out has done the opposite.
But I am managing to keep up with the sport. I still run in the mornings when I can, and tomorrow night we are hitting the local Slovenian volleyball courts for a run around.
After the exams things should improve again on the social front. We are going on a class mini break to Slovenia on the weekend of the 21st of October. We are travellling around a bit and staying overnight in Ljubljana in a youth hostel that used to be a prison. We will then head back on the Sunday to Trieste. The attached photo is from my last visit to Ljubljana - at Easter. This time though, we will have the benefit of local knowledge so will see the sights only Slovenes otherwise see!
