<p>So, on the economics major website, econ 100A is listed as a pre-requisite for almost all of the upper division electives. Is the information from 100A really needed for all of those courses? </p>
<p>Or, can I take a class that requires 100A while I'm taking 100A in the same semester? I'm asking because some people say the pre-requisite courses aren't really necessary to do well in certain classes...</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>No, it would depend on what elective you’re taking about. You could probably take any of them without 100a and be fine.</p>
<p>But I saw most upper econ elective courses has econ100a as the prerequisite.</p>
<p>The point is that 100a is not really a pre-req.</p>
<p>Yeah, so if I didn’t take econ100A before, can I still take those upper division course which claimed econ 100A as the pre-req?</p>
<p>Yes, they don’t check if you actually have taken 100A when you sign up for the class.</p>
<p>So what about when class starts? Will I get into trouble or being dropped by the instructor?</p>
<p>Yeah, I have a feeling that they won’t ever check… .</p>
<p>I have another question. Is it a bad idea to take UGBA 10 and Econ 100A in the same semester (along with easy breadth classes)?</p>
<p>I want to get started early on my econ double major but I’m not sure if it’s a good idea</p>
<p>They never check. UGBA 10 and 100A together is fine.</p>
