Question about the UGBA classes

<p>Can anyone who has knowledge of finance classes explain: </p>

<p>I looked at the classes UGBA 103, 132, 133, and Econ 136. Seems like Econ 136 uses the same book as UGBA 133. I want to learn the basics of finance as well as investing, ideally I can take Econ 136 as one of those classes because it counts as an Econ class for the Econ major.</p>

<p>Also does the Haas curve (~15% A's) for all the core classes which includes UGBA 103 really apply now in all the core classes? (meaning if I take the class in the upcoming semesters will those curves be implemented?</p>

<p>i’ve taken Econ 136, UGBA 131, and UGBA 132. Econ 136 pretty much covers everything in 103, 131, and 133. If i were you, i would take Econ 136 since it will teach you more material in less time. Also, when i took UGBA 131 and UGBA 132, the curve was EXTREMELY generous. UGBA 132 is probably the only other finance class in the UGBA series you’d want to take if you end up taking Econ 136.</p>
