This course is completely different from any class you've ever had because it's based around a bank simulation game called ProBanker. Starting out, you will feel a little overwhelmed, but you will, as Dr. Brown assures you, get the hang of it as you go. In teams of 3, you will be responsible for making the management decisions of your "bank," competing against the other banks in your class, and preparing 2 annual reports. If you like to learn through experience and actually getting in there and doing it yourself, this will be an enjoyable class! We also used the textbook to reinforce what we were doing in ProBanker, and took a multiple choice test over the book material. Our final was a 12 minute presentation of our performance. This class isn't hard as long as you are willing to put in a little effort and be a part of a team. He grades completely on your ability to write quality reports, not how your bank performs. If definitely helped that I was a Finance major (as far as understanding financial ratios, etc.), but I think any business student would do fine in this class. Dr. Brown is a very fair professor, and he is willing to help anytime you are falling behind or just need some extra help.
