<p>For Econ 140, I know that Econ 100A/B are pre-reqs. However, does the material in Econ 140 rely a lot on the knowledge learned in those classes? For example, could one take Econ 100B and Econ 140 concurrently, and do reasonably well, assuming one had already completed Econ 100A? Or even take Econ 140 before taking Econ 100B, also still assuming that one had already completed Econ 100A?</p>
<p>Any help would be greatly appreciated.</p>
<p>Anyone? Please?</p>
<p>I have not taken the class, but I googled and found some past class websites [url=<a href=“http://elsa.berkeley.edu/users/hildreth/e140_sp00/e140.html]here[/url”>http://elsa.berkeley.edu/users/hildreth/e140_sp00/e140.html]here[/url</a>] and [url=<a href=“http://are.berkeley.edu/~ferre/teaching.htm]here[/url”>http://are.berkeley.edu/~ferre/teaching.htm]here[/url</a>]. You should be able to look at the material and judge for yourself how necessary the prerequisites will be.</p>
<p>Thanks so much! That’s a big help!</p>
<p>short answer: no, not really. it’s completely different material.</p>
<p>sorry, let me clarify: no to the material being dependent on 100A/B</p>
<p>yes to you being able to take 140 without 100A and B</p>
<p>Econometrics is more about statistics and data analysis than actual economics. </p>
<p>(Disclaimer: I haven’t taken Ec140.)</p>
