The most important subject…

I wrote about some strategy for registering classes: here and here. Nonetheless, I realized that Research Methods in Business class has been severely neglected by most students.
This class teaches students how to conduct their research properly. It is also a prerequisite for doing thesis. Hence, it is often advised to students to take this class last. After all, most students tend to forget what they learnt immediately after the final exams.
However, I strongly suggest students to consider taking this class FIRST.
Why?
Because you will be able to apply its content almost immediately in other classes that require research skills & group projects.
And if you forget what you learnt? Well, you can always “sit-in” for the class again in the semester prior to your thesis to refresh your memories.
So, what do you think?

How to create questionnaires using Google Documents?

Today, I’m going show you how to create questionnaires using Google Documents.
Why use Google Doc instead of sending attachment via email?
Compatibility:
Google Doc have no compatibility issues. Anyone with Internet connection are able to access it. Compared to file attachment, some companies do not use Microsoft Office, or the latest version.
Speed in data collection:
With Google Doc, when a respondent answered your questionnaires and click submit, the data is appended onto a spreadsheet directly. Compared to file attachment, you will need to compile and transfer the data. This may lead to error and mistakes.
So, moving on with how to create questionnaires with Google Docs.
Step 1:
Go to http://docs.google.com. I assume you have a Google account. Otherwise, please create one.

Hi, thanks for this great site. This is my second semester and I have failed 2 subjects last semester (Accounting and Marketing) and my CGPA was < 3. Now I'm planning to take 4 subject (Accounting, Marketing, Ethics, and Economic). Is it okay or not, since I'm a full time student.
I need your advice about the subjects that I'm planning to take. Thanks in advance for your help.
