<p>I'm in Econ major. I'm deciding between UGBA 103 in summer (as it's offered in session A and I don't wanna spend my whole summer studying) and ECON 136 in semester. </p>
<p>Are ECON 136 and UGBA 103 equivalent? What are the differences between them, in terms of professors, class materials, grading, difficulty, workload, etc?</p>
<p>does anyone know… :/</p>
<p>What are your purposes for taking a finance class? I have heard that Economics 136 covers more material and is harder than UGBA 103, but UGBA 103 is curved since it is a UGBA course. If you take Economics 136, you won’t be able to take further finance courses. If you take UGBA 103, you can then take 131, 132, and 133.</p>
<p>I guess I just need it as an elective. Not very interested in finance and dun think I will take further courses. :/</p>
<p>do econ 136. I hear it’s a lot easier than UGBA 103’s vicious curve (vicious if you’re shooting for an A, it’s very generous in giving out B’s). </p>
<p>I made the mistake of taking UGBA 103 because I wanted to take the other finance electives. But because the class size is only 30 students for finance electives, it made it impossible for a non-Haas major to get in.</p>
