1612 very very boring especially with the crap textbook
i really dispise the way the author writes
1613 very interesting to limiting factors but it's boring either way because it's rather easy
not very challenging at all

Gotta agree with the comment about the textbook, but that's the case with most of our first year textbooks. The text is so convoluted and wordy, with about 3 quarters of each chapter just being filler text. Not to mention the fact that it's boring....
But the subject itself is OK - i like stuff that you can apply to the real-world. Unlike ECON1101 where it's all theoretical and will never happen in the real world.

Where's the useful part? Perfect competition that won't happen? Production possibility firms for countries that produce only two goods? Trying to establish exact variable costs and graphing them according to output? Trying to quantitatively measure qualitative opportunity costs like time?
If there's something useful, we just haven't gotten up to it yet..

I did Micro and Macro last year and they weren't the best of subjects. I thought Micro sucked but the latter Macro chapters (the ones you cover between midsession and final exam), were 100% useless theoretical concepts and graphs. That really did ruin my experience of university economics. Its not like high school and I found it to be very poorly taught at Uni.Acid said:Where's the useful part?

Finance1612, on the other hand, is a bit more interesting. I know the textbook may not seem too good, but most uni textbooks are like that (if not worse). Its just something to get used to.
