Econ 2H03 vs. 2J03
Has anyone taken both of these courses? The same prof is teaching them (Rashid Khan) and the courses have identical marking schemes. Can someone please comment on which course is easier to do well in or which one is more interesting? Thanks in advance!

I did better in 2H03 because I found it more interesting. Neither is overly difficult though.

If you found econ 1bb3 relatively easy, I'd say go for 2h03. General consensus with Dr. Khan is that as long as you own his courseware and go through practice q's, you'll be fine. Khan is very flexible in terms of grading, you have bonus quizzes and quizzes, where you can work with your classmates to boost your mark. Me and all of my buddies got 12 in it

Taking 2h03 now. He's a terrible lecturer goes really fast thick accent and all over the place. To make up for it, bonus quizzes which he posts ahead of time, a concise courseware with past tests which he reuses

I've had both, they're both easy. However, taking them at the same time will require you to be disciplined. Khan has all of his tests, bonus quizzes, and quizzes on the same day.

If you do all of the problems in the courseware (bonus quizzes, tests, quizzes, assignments), you should get >90% on all major assessments.

The first test is really easy, you just have to recall the courseware answers. The subsequent tests have some recycled questions, but he will try to trick you a bit.

Short answer to your short question:
2H03 is mpre interesting, 2J03 is easier.

Both are easy enough, although I wouldn't recommend 2 at once.

Go for Econ 2H03, it is way more interesting. Don't buy the textbook.
