How to study
Prioritizing your study
You should prioritize such that you get a better grade (and understanding!) compared to the number of hours you study. Refer to the
textbook(s) and research online if you find difficulty understanding a topic. Make a list such that you can get clarification from your faculty.
● Do a Sample exam- try to solve it online.
● Follow the mindmaps. Most questions will be from the central topics. Use a business model (canvas) to match it to an
organization.
● Follow the slides- particularly the diagrams. Understand the diagrams. Often the slides has limited information- only the top-level
ones. If you feel getting lost- go to the textbook(s). You will need the textbook to better understand the slides particularly on
topics you are not very comfortable with.
● Read the textbook. There is no better way to understand the topic and you will be confident with your answers. You can
supplement slides with Wikipedia and your goggle-research.

Other Great Ideas

● Learn the grading rubric.
● Create cheat-sheets as you study
● Practice solved problems in the book (if any)
● Practice assignments (if any)
● Use Wikipedia and/or Google to get additional insight on a problem

Instructions for during exam

● Read the question at least twice to understand it and answer accordingly (objectively).
● Keep the readings (textbook, lectures) in mind and/or provide details including any assumption(s).
● If a question asks for an explanation, provide an example.
