- This course it is up to you and your group to decide how much time to spend on the project.You can really spend a lot of time on it. The same goes for the literature. At the same time very much to read with both course book and papers. However good with quizz to help motivate us to read. Very good you moved 2nd quiz to exam. » (?)
- too much to read» (A typical high effort course)
- The group work showed to take too much time than if we were less people in the group, and with people that actually know English and has studies "managament" before. Some in the group had a very low level of English, results in difficulties in communication. Why not have a English test before the course or before being accepted to MEI? » (I almost never put this much effort into a course)
- The project took huge amount of time. It got way bigger compared to the other course (TCIT), even though the correspond to equal amount of hp. » (I almost never put this much effort into a course)

- only read the goals in the beginning of the course. can be more concise. » (The goals give some guidance, but could be clearer)
- I don"t know but for me, it"s quite hard to find the linkage between the lectures and the goals in some cases. Sometimes I felt that lectures are talking about something completely different from course goals.» (The goals give some guidance, but could be clearer)
- The whole process of creating new business and the topics around are all well explained.» (The goals clearly describe what I am supposed to learn)

- I thought the exam didn"t touch upon what was the core of the class» (No, not at all)
- didn"t think the examination mirrored the course literature» (No, not at all)
- The examination was a bit to focused on the BM, 2/3 of credits. The time was to limited on the last question (BM) nad could be made more specific, a more elaborated examination was made in the project... » (To some extent)
- I there are to muck points on a question that demands much creativity. » (To some extent)
- One of the questions were more about how creative you can be under stress. » (To some extent)
- No since the time available to answer both the short questions and the big BM question was too short. Didn"t have time to formulate answer on the big one even If I am well aware of diffrent parts of BM and diffrent types of BM. That was also what I heard after the exam from many other classmates. » (To some extent)
- The short exams (quiz) was a good method for encouraging students to read the book. The final exam was a good challenge. However, the time of the exam was extremely short for that number of questions, specially the case study. » (To some extent)
- Considering the goals of the course, I can not read out that I am supposed to have gained entrepreneurial thinking and creativity. So, I really can´,t see how it should be motivated that 50% of the written exam is about creativity i.e. construct a venture business model, when creativity is not part of the material covered in the course.» (To some extent)
- I really don"t feel that the examen assess if I reached the goals. It seems to assess whether I read or not and whether I memorize them or not.» (To some extent)
- last question (the massive one) could have been more nice regarding the content of the course» (To some extent)
- Gamla tentan som ligger uppe är för detaljerad. Oviktigt att kunna rabbla utantill-listor vad som är bra. Det är bättre att kolla ifall man har förstått och göra fler analytiska frågor. » (I don"t know/have not been examined yet)
- Now it"s before the exam. But from the exam four years ago, it will be fine.» (I don"t know/have not been examined yet)

Finns inte en möjlighet att alla skall kunna examineras på lika villkor på detta sätt!!!! Gör det till ett godkänt moment ifall det skall vara så galet godtyckligt. Att 50% av betyget sätts på något där: 1. grupper lottas 2. case lottas 3. handledare lottas. Helt djävla värdelöst för att tala klarspråk!!! Det är så kass att jag överväger att kontakta studentombudsmannen om betygen kommer ut som ett lotteri! Gör om Gör rätt! » (Small extent)
- did not give much direct advice, was verry vague. Seem satisfied on the other hand» (Small extent)

- There were too much literatures, which were sort of impossible to read considering the time spent on the project.» (Some extent)
- The same I said before. Book, readings and lectures seem to have different perspective. Maybe I was misunderstanding but it was my feeling.» (Some extent)
- There was a lot of course litterature that had to be read, involving three seperat books and additional articles which made it hard to read everything.» (Some extent)
- Articles: very good. Course book: very wordy, led to dropped interest while reading. Other books: (Go and crossing the chasm) very good!» (Large extent)

- The project group was very difficult to work within. Scarce communication and students didn"t hold deadlines or did their parts» (Very poorly)
- In the project group.» (Very poorly)
- Some students in my group did not have the intention of making a good report or to contribute in the work. Also the English skills of especially two students in my group were so poor that it actually created more work to correct their writings than what it would have been needed if we had just done it ourselves to begin with.» (Rather poorly)
- Our case group was not aligned. We should be allowed to choose groups ourselves since the case is such a large part of the course and grade» (Rather poorly)
- One of my teammates was pleased with a 3 in grade so when we reached week 7 and the report was supposed to be finnished he (Gerard Unitech) didn"t put in any more time. NOT AT ALL. We had to force him to attend our presentation. Me and our group was not pleased at all with Gerards participation » (Rather poorly)

- I would say that you must expect a heavy work load when you"re in a master program and I usually like when the studies are challenging. However, during some parts of this period I really felt that it was too high workload. » (High)
- The project report takes a lot of time. But overally speaking, it"s okay in workload.» (High)
- Very high, at least for our group.» (High)
- Project takes too much time and we also has 3 books and many articles to read just for this course. And we had another course as well, so time is limited to do everything..» (Too high)
- Mostly because of the project work, wasn"t time to study for the examn» (Too high)
- There has not been any time to read for your own sake. The case took too much time with different purposes and answers every week. » (Too high)
- too much to read» (Too high)
- The project was huge, considering the hp. also, the GO-case felt unnecessary! two quizes, the go case, chasm book, project and the exam.. just too much. remove the GO case and rather have a case discussion about the chasm book.» (Too high)
- Three books, several articles and one very big project. I put effort only for this course and somehow had little time to read the books and article.» (Too high)

- For some reason the task was unclear and split between the projects. Also, the instructons given to groups differed ALOT which seems very odd. » (I understood the task to late)
- Felt like all group got different information regarding of what should be done.» (I understood the task to late)
- In the beginning we had an idea, that at last went changing over time and finally we had a few days to do the right task. This is my perspective of what happened.» (I understood the task to late)
- perhaps not prepared enough to start with» (I understood the task to late)
- Very shifting demands / tasks recieved from supervisor.» (I understood the task to late)
- It could be MUCH clearer. We tried to use Blue Ocean at first, but it did not suit our task that we had from the company. Therefore, when we thought we were almost finished we had to change many things and so on. Every new supervision gave a new view of what should be done and this created very much work. (However, the project became much better after each supervision, but it could be stated clearer from the beginning what should be done.) » (I understood early, but had to ask several questions)
- But of course you can now see obvious things that you could have improved..» (I understood early, but had to ask several questions)
- Konstigt att alla skulle göra olika saker i projekten. Mycket olika fokus och olika nivåer om vad som var tillåtet eller inte.» (I understood early, but had to ask several questions)
- Some of the group seemed not to understand though which was a problem» (I understood early, but had to ask several questions)
- Took time to develop the ideas, especially because the group was shattered. Some did definitely not understand during the whole period. One problem, minor, to balance between what the company and supervisors wanted.» (I understood early, but had to ask several questions)
- At first I understood the task at hand, but since it kept changing I don"t think I understood until we got a "go" in read week 6.» (I understood early, but had to ask several questions)
- my conseption changed after several supervision meetings. eventually, the task differed from the general guidlines on the web.» (I understood early, but had to ask several questions)
- Reading the course PM we were supposed to do something else than the company wanted us to do.» (I understood early, but had to ask several questions)
- The task that we preformed was not really what was stated in the description, instead did we create it together with our supervisor and then it became clear. » (I understood early, but had to ask several questions)
- Think we got so much info about their BM feelt that we more rewrote it. That basic things could be pushed on to do more quickly and the supervisor could pushed more on that we should just don"t come up with new ideas but really emphsixe to get practical next step guide onhow to do or try to do something. Not just stating try to identify lead customer, but help and push to investigate who?» (I understood early, but had to ask several questions)
- It felt like the company brought us new information and (changed) request during the project» (I understood early, but had to ask several questions)
- The project pm is clear. But we still have to specify our focus during the supervision meeting.» (I understood clearly from just reading the project pm)
- I understood what was stated in the PM, but since my supervisor, had other plans for the structure than the stated in the PM, my group had to ask several clarification questions.» (I understood clearly from just reading the project pm)

- Often felt like we were guided in the wrong direction and the focus/purpose of the project shifted over time. In my opinion, we ended up with a report which was quite different from what was asked of us in the project PM. It resulted in a lot of extra time as we had to rework the project to better fit the new "project goal". » (Not good enough)
- Many good inputs! But somewhat vague from the beginning of how we actually were supposed to use tools as Blue Ocean» (A really good supervisor)

- Unfortunately, I feel that I really didn"t learn what I had to from the project. And I didn"t enjoy it that much either. So, I think the lowest part of the CNB course I would say it is definitely the project. (the same)» (Poor)
- Interesting project but it has been too much effort that seems like it hasn"t given something in return» (Fair)
- For our case, Id prefer doing an analysis for Icomera on how to penetrate the market in the US, using other tools than we did. (Or another case, where the comparative analysis actually would have given something) » (Fair)
- Think so much was recently changed since the BIP this spring and the new mgmt had also already picked the low hanging fruit. Feelt that we were consultants hired to look at how qbtech could decelop quality reputation instead of considering their overall BM and the diffrent aspect of it» (Fair)
- with respect to lack of time found to spend on studying literatures.» (Fair)
- I would have wished to work with people that I know are competent and easier to discuss and work with. I thought much of the group work was "blocked" since people (3 out of 6) didn"t want to discuss and work through the task together. They preferred a more divided work load. » (Adequate)
- Maybe better to have a fictional case if what the company wants is a customer survey. I would have learned more from a ficitonal case where the major part would be analysis.» (Adequate)
- The parts during the project when we were creative were good but I lot of the report writing is about doing the report. My guess is that it should give me more to asses more companies and present them in PowerPoint for example.» (Adequate)
- Well, when regarding the total workload during this period it felt like the project took too much of the time, especially when regarding that we had 3 books in this course, were supposed to write a scientific article in the other course etc. » (Adequate)
- Nice with a reality coupling but the company could have been a bit more interrested in the end. On the other hand they were attaced by 2 groups with a lot of cuestions.» (Good)
- Got the feeling that the guidence one recieved varied a lot between each supervisor. » (Good)

- The information in the course is good, but the workload is too big when reading another course at the same time. For a case like this, it is important that you can choose your members, since it takes too much time to explain everything and correct the case from incomprehensive English. The information in the course is good, the structure is not. Communicate with the other course and make sure that you don"t put deadlines at the same times, has been very stressful. » (Fair)
- Interesting material, but the course administration has to make a choice. Either this is a theoretical OR an applied course. It is not realistic to have mid-terms, 3-4 books, articles, final exam and a project (at the size of a bachelor thesis) in a 8 week course (in parallel with another course)» (Fair)
- I was really exited when I started this course, and now when everything is finished I feel like I really didn"t catch or got much from the course. To many expectations maybe.» (Fair)
- Jättebra hur den kopplar ihop till övriga kurser. » (Good)
- The course was very interesting.» (Good)
- More hands on that other cources in MEI so far. Keep that up. Liked the VC-presentation and SCA a lot» (Good)
- Interesting subject!» (Good)
- Too much reading material remained to the final examination.» (Good)
- The content is very interesting however the work load is a bit too much.» (Good)
- A little less focus on the report writing in the project and more about beeing creative, for example digg in to two companies and present just by PowerPoint. » (Good)
- Very interesting course that made me hungry for entrepreneurship. » (Excellent)
- One of the best courses I have attended. Sören is very good!» (Excellent)
