Final+Assessment


 * Final Assessment for BDI3C**

The final assessment for this course is in two parts:

**1. Creating the Venture Plan for Your Business** The Venture Plan is the final assessment for this course - it incorporates all the ideas and analysis you have done in the course this semester. You will create a written venture plan, as well as present your plan to the class in a 5 minute presentation. The written plan will likely be 20-25 pages long, be much more detailed than the presentation, and include all your analysis and research - it will therefore be worth considerably more marks than the presentation (that doesn't mean you don't work hard on the presentation; it just means you need to do your best on the written plan)

**2. A Final In-Class Exam** The exam will be in-class, 80 minutes long. It will focus on course concepts that aren't really addressed in the Venture Plan (see handout below). While there is likely to be some objective questions (multiple choice), the bulk of the exam will be short answer questions, most of which will likely relate to a case study.

**GOOD LUCK!**

- The presentation for the Venture Plan is focused as if you are presenting to a board of directors, asking them for money for your business. - Focus on why the business will be a success - i.e., how well you know your customers, how the product will be desirable, how your marketing will attract buyers - and then discuss what you need the money for. - The presentation is only 5-7 minutes long - be succinct and don't waste time ||   || * For the remainder of the course you will focus on completing and polishing your written venture plan and your venture presentation ||   ||  ||
 * ** Venture Plan Presentation ** ||  || ** Discussion Focus: **

- Like the rest of the course, the main focus of the exam will be on a more practical application of the concepts we have studied - i.e., most questions will ask how an entrepreneur would do things in given situations (APP questions), or how something an entrepreneur did would reflect the concepts we have studied (T/I questions) - There will also be a few questions that will require simple recall of information (K/U questions) || * Use the handout to the right to help you prepare for the inclass exam ||   ||  ||
