Which direction am I heading towards

I am writing this post after a long time. When I was in first year, I thought that I would be able to devote more time to blogs, thinking that the load in the electives courses would be light. But Second year is as heavy as (and busy as :)) first year. The problem in 2nd year is that since most of the subjects are specializations, only students who have relevant experience in those areas take those courses. Means the benchmark is set at a very high level, right from the first minute. 
I am taking 4 courses this semester - International BusinessGame TheoryFinancial Management , and Marketing Strategy . I have a winter intensive in Case Analysis and Presentations. I am taking 5 courses in spring - Corporate Strategy , Mergers and Acquisitions , Financial Statement Analysis , Data Driven Marketing , Corporate Finance

These courses make me eligible to call myself a major in Consulting and Finance!!!! Yes. I would be majoring in Consulting and Finance. And I am already excited.

And regarding this semester courses, Marketing Strategy is a sailthru with a OK (4 out of 10 rating)  prof. But the profs for the first three subjects are kick-ass profs. They are simply amazing. I really enjoy their classes. It simply can't get better than this. The flip side is that each course has an average of 3-4 readings every class, a submission or a presentation or an exam in every class. Who said 2nd year would be better than first year :)
