Anyone on here take Econ 301?! I'm doing it right now and I dunno if it's me but some of the stuff is kinda confusing course this is the first time my prof is teaching the course so that kinda doesn't help either.

But anyways just wondering if anyone on here took it and how they did.

is that intermediate macro-econ? yeah..it is confusing as hell at first...but then you write the final and you wonder why on earth you were struggling! haha...i had tracey..he's the best prof for econ IMO.

i just started understanding supply and demand graphs during my final! it was horrible! but i ended up pulling off a decent mark despite fumbling through the first 2/3 of class!

Post what you need help with.

There are a lot of economics majors on here. I'm sure one of us can help you. Econ 301 is a tough class at first, but looking back it seems really easy. The toughest part is figuring out what to do. After that, anything they throw at u is all gravy man

I have Moldovan....she knows her shit but it's the first time she's teaching the course.

It's been so long since I did Econ 201/203 it took me a bit to get back into the understanding of Econ but I spent about 3 hours last night reading the textbook and figuring out the examples the textbook offers. I pretty much understand everything I was having problems with but I'm sure there will be stuff I'll need help with!

Oh yah...anyone on here take Econ 321?

I have her too. She isnt the greatest of teachers. She thinks the last 5 mins of class is the time to start a new topic and rush through it. I also hate her handwriting. Do you have it MWF or TR?

I have it TR at 2? You?

I totally understand what you're saying though. She moves way too fast.

Did you take it from Miller?? I had him last semester. EASY shit....got an A with minimal studying. I guess eveyone is different though.....

So there are a lot of Econ majors on here? I'm one right now too.

Hahah Miller is great - where else can you find a prof that doesn't care about anything and comes to smoke a joint with you after class :rofl:?

got a quick question......

if I was to give a bundle (x1,x2) = (1,1) and an utility function of U(x1,x2)=2x1+x2
is my IC going to be a straight line or it can be just an abitiary curve that pass thru (1,1)???

if it is a straight line (negative sloped) line, won't that be considered as a perfect substitute???

I got the first 6, but I'll need to take care of some concept, then the rest 10 should be easy...

Do you guys have Moldovan?

If so where did you get the assignment from? She said it's supposed to be on blackboard but I checked and I don't see it anywhere.

I just found out that I did alot of it wrong but I think I got it now so I have to restart but it really isn't that hard now that I know what to do. 5 - 9 in the long answers should take you 2 minutes each not even, then you have time to complete the rest

Took ECON 301 in the summer of 2002. I don't remember much, other than the fact that she was a first time instructor too, and damn was she ever hot.
