Comm subject selection dilemma (1 Viewer)

[kaz1]

Okay I'm doing these three subject confirmed: CVEN2501, CVEN2301 and CVEN3401.

I was also going to do Macroeconomics ECON1102 but for the lecture stream with acceptable times there (during 9-6) but with the shit luck that I have it ended up having a clash with CVEN2501 and the other stream is 6pm-8pm and I don't want to stay in uni that long cause I live in the west. I also go to most of my lectures coz im a gud boi.

So is ECON1102 learnable without lectures, is there online recordings on lectopia for this subject or should I do another subject like FINS2624 or ACTL2001.

Also can someone comment on the difficulty on FINS2624/ACTL2001 and any other info that may be useful?

It's also a bit of a bitch that rectangles isn't working.

ECON1102 isn't too hard especially if you did economics in high school. It's a first year subject.

FINS2624 is a bitch relative to ECON1102 and requires you to really read and pay attention to exercises/activities. Henry Yip has a habit of writing painfully hard exams and testing very obscure elements of readings. Concepts are difficult to grasp if you don't have the mindset, but you will probably learn more from self study than attending lectures. In other words, you can survive without lectures but you need to commit to study time.

ACTL2001 I can't comment on as I didn't do it.
