So I just got into microeconomics (some guy emailed me granting me a seat) which is 3 - one hour lectures a week. I've missed a week and a half of lectures. On the other hand, I'm enrolled in macroeconomics 7-10 (night class) and I've missed that too since it's once a week Wednesday and I didn't get in until Thursday.

I'm taking 6 courses so what would be easier? Opinions? Econ 1bb3 (macro) night class OR Econ 1b03 (micro) day class .

Keep in mind - I have no background in econ whatsoever

Micro is much easier.

Plus i got raped by the macro exam.

I've never taken either, but everyone I've heard from said that Micro was easier.

Micro is easy!...dunno about macro

Gotta work on your macro. Managing your economy and constantly producing units is more important at beginner level than paying attention to micro.

yeah micro is much easier

Depends really... Micro is easier but Macro is much more rewarding. Personally I like Macro more, because it's more of a real-world picture.

Micro: the courseload is easier
Macro: the algebra is easier

They're about equal. Micro is an easier pass, but Macro is easier to get a 12 in if you try.

Take micro. Easier. Prof is better.

micro is easier to get a good grade in but I found macro more interesting. I got the same grade in both but I had to work a little harder for the macro tests

Macro wasn't hard, just SUPER boring. The hardest part of the course was trying to read the textbook. Leaving it all to the last 2-3 days was a terrible idea. The exam, however, was easier than the midterms. The M/C usually had 2 answers that were similar.. bridget likes being tricky I guess. The short answers werent bad, the first S/A was the only one where you actually had to think and not recall a graph.
