8 case study write-ups 1 case presentation 1 new product presentation 1 final take home case writeup Attendance Participation Professor Peter Pao is a really knowledgeable professor! His classes can become mundane sometimes but you're always welcome to participate and that makes it not boring! His grading is a little bit arbitrary in my opinion but as long as you fit the course material in your assignments, you're set up for at least an A-! Make sure you participate every class because the TA keeps a close watch on everyone. If you get complacent, you might end up with a B. Final grade: A-
