Hey guys,

I'm on my 8th course and currently in the Analytical track. My long term goal is to work in DS/ML so was thinking maybe I should take Deep Learning which is a C-track elective. My problem is that I feel like I read somewhere that 1 course can't count for 2 requirements, but I can't find where I saw that. It would mean if I wanted to switch to C-track I'd need to take an extra course.

Completed:

All foundation courses (currently in DVA)

ISYE 6644 Simulation and Modeling (A track, Ops elective)

ISYE 6669 Deterministic Optimization (A track, Ops elective)

ISYE 6414 Regression (A track, Stats elective)

Future:

Spring '27 - ISYE 6740 CDA (A and C track, Stats elective)

Summer '27 - Practicum

Fall '27 - Either DMSL (A track, stats elective) or Deep Learning (C track) depending if I can switch tracks

For those who have taken DL, if I can't count CDA towards both a C-track elective and a Stats elective, is sticking around for an extra semester to do Deep Learning worth it? Could I take DMSL, graduate so I actually have the piece of paper, and then enroll in DL or would I have to push off graduation to do that? (which would be really unappealing honestly, I've been doing this since 2023)

Edit: I'm not necessarily concerned about which track I end up being, I'm concerned that if I take DL, I won't have technically satisfied either A or C track because I'll only have 1 C track elective since CDA would be my second stat requirement, and so not contribute to a C track elective. DL is not an A track elective so I won't satisfy the A track either. Need 2 stats electives and 2 track specific electives with no double dipping (if my memory is correct)

Hey, guys

I mentioned in a previous thread that I had created a couple of Anki flashcard decks for MGT6201 after I was way too flippant about 2 of the exams and needed to get my act together. I'd like to share them because they helped me ace the later exams. All of the content was made using the lecture materials and none of it was lifted from any exam. Can any of the TA's lurking in here verify that my sharing them here wouldn't be violating the honor code?

Edit: I reviewed the Honor Code and I think it's cool. They should become available for download on 9/25. Just a warning, these are pretty overkill so you may want to trim as you find necessary, but they did help me totally recover my grade. These are just for the Strategy and Marketing Exams but if I could go back I'd do this for Supply chain too. If you aren't familiar with Anki I highly recommend it if you find yourself needing to do a lot of memorization quickly. It's popular among med students and polyglots
