Here we go again...

In about 9 hours, I have my first exam of my second period at INSEAD. The course being "examined" is essentially Operations Management.

This was one course I was not really looking forward to when the period started, but one that got progressively more interesting as the 6 weeks passed. The course talks about various topics such as Capacity/Inventory economics, Queuing theory to resolve QoS/Cost trade-offs, Process Control Strategy and the like.

While it may sound a trifle abstract at first, its amazing in its applicability in virtually all facets of life. The course ended on a slightly philosopical note, with an interesting analogy...
