So I took my 421 capstone midterm a few days ago and I did pretty bad. My total score was 68 out of possible 100.

If I continue to score above 90 on the remaining assignments (discussions, study cases and final project), I should be OK, right. What I'm trying find out is that scoring under 70 points on the midterm should not equate to an automatic course failure. Please share your input. BTW, the midterm carries a weight of 25% of the course. My 68 points equated to 17%
Don't give up - put it out of your head you can't go back - move forward.
I did awful on my TESU Bus 421 Midterm (I mixed up two of 'the lists' on the exam; which are everything on the midterm; I had been doing very well right up to that point). I was convinced that was it, is was over - but since it was already paid for, I said I'm just going to do the best I can I have nothing to lose. Needless to say I passed (I had concern right up to the end), and actually did better overall than I expected was possible.
What are "the lists"?
It is possible this has changed since I took the TESU Bus 421 (2018), but they where all items talked about in the exam study guide the professor shared. They were the subjects from the book that where discussed that read something like "there are 5 steps to XYZ", or "Here are the seven key factors of ABC" - They were all text book topics (not case study related). This was very helpful for the 2018 version -

The link that you posted asnwerd the question in my study guide exactly. Will these be the topics for the questions that show up on the test? Will the essay questions be the same? Also for some of the questions. Like the one asking to compare a standout vs a low performing company do they want a specific example of a real world comparison of two companies? Or do they want the theory? Thank you!
