How is Econ 1BB3 with Gajic?
She is the prof for the second semester. I couldn't find any reviews on her and o'shaughnessy is only teaching in the first semester. Any recommendations on who to take it with?

Took it with O'Shaughnessy and I found that she was a good lecturer and doesn't spoon feed you. Tests were fair but don't expect it to be easy without studying, I came out with an 11 in the course and came out with a 12 in micro econ. As long as you practice tests, read textbook, and do aplia well you should get auto 10+ if you are remotely competent in studying.

Never took it with Gajic, you should look at their past tests and compare. I think profs make a small difference, unless you get an infamously easy and nice prof hint hint* micro econ

I just took Econ 1BB3 with Gajic this past Spring term. Gajic is pretty good, she knows her stuff well, will explain it well and also does her best to engage the class with what she is teaching. Her midterms and exam were based on lecture notes but I personally had to read the textbook to solidify a few more concepts. She definitely tests fair, first midterm was easy, second midterm was tougher and exam was even tougher, but only because the concepts themselves get harder as you go along. I would definitely recommend doing Aplia because that is a mark booster. Gajic along with her TAs are also always available to help you. I heard that O'Shaughnessy was hard so I was a bit afraid of taking this course, but after taking with Gajic I don't regret my decision!
