<p>So, I've decided to sell out and become an actuary.
A few questions:
Is Econ 101 series more or less time-consuming than 100? I'm not worried about the increased mathematical content. Also, how much more informative is 101 compared to 100?</p>
<p>Do people tend to be turned away from 101a due to class size restrictions?</p>
<p>How much does Econ 141 use 100/1 series? Will 101 be better than 100 in this respect?</p>
<p>take the 101 series if you want to be better off for 141. as a math person, should be fine either way though, but 141 gives even mathy people a tough time sometimes. just grab the A from 101 and move on with life.</p>
<p>I took the Econ 101 series and am only familiar with material from the material from the Econ 100 series secondhand. The Econ 101 series is more mathematical while the Econ 100 series is more conceptual. Typically Econ 101 is considered more time-intensive, but the reverse may be true if you have a particularly mathematical brain. Econ 101a is difficult to enroll in, I had to wait until my sophomore year even using my Phase 1.</p>
<p>Econ 141 doesn’t use any content from the Econ 101 series. However you should take Statistics 134 before taking that class.</p>
<p>ah, so you learn some things in 100 that you don’t in 101.</p>
<p>Thanks for the responses.</p>
<p>Sometimes the Econ 100 series will have material not included in the Econ 101 series, but usually it is the other way around.</p>
