“Why do you take MBA course?isn’t it totally different from your major?”
That’s the common question that i always ask to some of my friends from other department when they consider to take MBA’s courses
To be honest I always expect this kind of answer: “it leverages my knowledge” “i want to have a view about management things” or at least that kind of ‘intellectual’ answer not answer like “MBA? i want to have refreshing during semester” or “i want point only, i heard that in MBA is easier to get grade compare to any other department”
my reaction was “okay..if you think so..i was engineer, i’m happy to be in MBA, you may want the life what i have now” but… well..lemme floor up my ideas now
I am absolutely agree that MBA is fun
that MBA is ‘easy’
that MBA is opening your mind up rather than just that complicated number that make your brain saturated
But, honey, my dear friends, you forget something
that ‘easy’ is not stupid
that easy is not something that you can just take it for granted thus you put no weight on it
that easy is not to be dumb and deaf during the classes..
if you think it’s easy, please put your contribution to the class
talk, give your opinion during the discussion, show your effort in presentation, as that what MBA is
wanna listen my opinion more?
that easy needs social intelligent to talk
that easy needs smart to catch
because in this methods of class when you don’t show anything you mean nothing
even worse when you just give like “ahmm..uhmm..ahmm….uhmm..” and innocent smile when professors ask, they don’t need your smile, they need your answers, baby..
you make people have question mark “is she/ he from MBA? where is she/ he from?”
okay..do you know why you act like that, because you take this for granted, because you’re in class and your mind is somewhere else working for the tasks from your department
okay..put like this
have you ever consider your own value when you do that?
you even put your community reputation down 
do the things for the fullest
don’t make yourself look stupid if you are smart
so my suggestion, welcome to MBA, it is really the place where you can enjoy your life
but please do it seriously, for your good sake, for your community reputation sake
don’t make people misinterpret you, value you less than who you are
You can do it!!!

I think the students that come from IM department are OK (at least we have some similarities), but I agree with you about other departments and want to add something else.
You think that the course is easy, so the professor make you an easy question, and if you don’t know how to answer that you will look very stupid (at least more stupid that than if it a “difficult” curse). And always, ALWAYS, to shut up is worst than say something wrong.
People from other departments are very welcome, but if you come to our class, please contribute to it. MBA classes are valuable in a 50% for the knowledge of the students. If you want to get something, you need something to offer. If you are a library rat, with no experience and no ideas, please, don’t come.
