<p>Oh man, I don’t mean to sound negative here, but I’m just going to be very honest…</p>
<p>As someone who has taken both econ 10 and econ 25, I can say for certain that econ 25 is <em>by far</em> the harder class. The median grade for that class will be lower, a sizeable chunk of the class will dropout, and it is not really an easy way out. The material is pretty interesting though, but he should know to be prepared for insane amounts of reading, long and difficult problem sets, lots of memorization, and grueling exams. It’s a class that’s very heavy in math, but you’re also expected to know a number of Supreme Court cases inside and out, as well.</p>
