I really liked this course. It was very helpful especially if you are thinking about going into finance. I think it is also helpful to take just to know the basics. There were some quizzes, but they were take home. There are some problems sets as well. There is a group project at the end too. I think you get to learn a lot about the world of business and is incredibly useful.
Like in all classes by Prof Considine, you learn the most when you come with a certain level of background knowledge and specific questions in mind. Former professionals don't teach the same way academics do, but it is still a valuable experience. Highly recommend the course to anyone with a strong finance background and interest in M&A, LBO, and Restructuring. Lastly, the course can be valuable for Banking recruiting if you've done the prep.

Class was very relaxed. Not a lot of homework to do. Only a couple problem sets and some other easy assignments. Can be a valuable class if you are engaged and want to learn but the information isn't force-fed to you.
