Easy 300 level econ electives. (1 Viewer)

[222tracytracy222]

Hi Everyone,

I'm doing a b com and one of my majors is economics.

I've completed my core units now I have to pick 3 elective units.

I've enrolled into econ394 (japanese economy) for next semester but apparently this is a difficult unit and I'm thinking of changing it. Does anyone have any suggestions?

For my 2 other choices I'm thinking of either doing econ336 (economic development), or econ359. If anyone has done these units, I'd appreciate some feedback regarding difficulty.

All the electives seem kind of boring (except for maybe health economics). Also, econ361 (economic and business forecasting) is not an option - did it this sem and dropped it a few week later. Terrible unit!

Thanks a lot!

How did you get that impression? I'm just not really into the financial/macro side of things. I love micro though If your going to make a post at least try a be helpful.

Youd said things such as

is not an option - did it this sem and dropped it a few week later. Terrible unit!

implying at least you have a very particular taste in what you like.

Isnt it logical that if you like the micro side of things look through all the options and find the ones that either relate to micro or are close to micro?

Yes I'm picky, but that doesnt mean I "hate all the economics" as you put it.

And I actually did what you suggested - to pick units that are related to micro. Thats how I came up with environmental economics and economic development. But my issue is the difficulty - I will be doing some hard units next semester and would like to be able to balance it all out with some easier units.
