Econ & Writing Seminar at Penn

Hey everyone,

I’m seeking class recommendations for Econ and Writing Seminar.

I plan on taking Econ 001 this summer as an online course at Penn, and I have AP waiver for Econ 002. But since I need 2 credit units for Econ, I was wondering if I should (1) just take Econ 002 at Penn or (2) take another Econ class (if so, which one?) I have heard that intro Econ classes have grade deflation, so would it be better to take a higher level course?

Also, I have heard that the courses for Writing Seminar can be a lot of work. Does anyone have recommendations for W.S. courses that are manageable?

Thank you for your input!
