Entering this class, I didn't know what to expect. I had heard several things about how the class was and had often seen people studying smoking notes for the exams. But this semesters entrepreneurship was not like I had been told to expect. I think that is in part to the restructuring of the class. For the past two months each student has kept a blog, updating it every week with new assignments, videos, interviews, and responses based on the information from lecture and our readings.
The class is very hands on and you have to be willing to break outside of your comfort zone. At first the interviews seem taunting and every time you see a new assignment requiring a video upload you curse under your breath, or out loud, or you just scream a little. But then you do it and you move on with your life. In a month you wont even remember that time you went up to random people in which-wich and asked them if they mind being interviewed. Some people are going to say no to you and that;s ok, except it and move on. Push through it, push through all the assignments, and know that its not actually that bad.
If you are planning on taking this class in the future I recommend three things to you:
1. Its not as bad as you think its going to be, so dont not take it just because your friend says "it sucks."
2. Keep up to date with the assignments, even better do them in advance. There is nothing worse than running around at the last minute trying to find someone to interview.
3. Stick with it! And don't just BS the assignments as much as you want to, its not worth it.
