    The Leinster vs. Munster match is on in the RDS on Saturday, ko at 8. If you're unlucky enough to be in the last exam (6-8) you might want to bring earplugs. I'd imagine there'll be a bit of noise from the pre-match build-up...

    Brilliant... Haha, but on the bright side, sure it'll only add to the atmosphere when we get out!

    Eugh tell me you're not serious, I have my last exam then :( Not too worried about the noise more the fact that people will be outside enjoying themselves while i try and pluck microbiology essays out of thin air ... Still it's a tradition of mine not to finish til the last exam. In my three years here i've never finished before 6-8 on the last day except for one christmas when i finished 3-5 on the last day !!! Maybe next year ...

    Oh, marvellous - I have a Computer Science exam at that time. I'm hoping the exam won't be too bad, and I can get out early ...

    Four down, two to go. One went as I expected, and the other three went better than I expected, so I have no cause for complaint this year. A good thing too, since this session decides what kind of degree I am awarded next month. :cool:

Your days are your sonnets.

    If thats introduction to quant economics then its one of the easiest modules in UCD. If you can't do that Economics is not for you.

    1 left for me Intermediate Quants tomorrow at 3.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,969 ✭✭✭antomorro-sei


    I reckon I'll be dropping Economics for next year...

    +1 on dropping economics for next year. Really different to what I thought it would be.

    Aye, Ivan's sample lecture was cool. Pity about the rest of the year though.......

    If you don't like maths, do yourselves (and the lecturers) a favour by dropping the subject.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,375 ✭✭✭Pandoras Twist


    Thing is, I loved intro to Macro and micro. Got A+s in both of them

    When it hit the maths of graphing and ****, I can't hack it. I understand it all in english, but I'm woeful at the maths

    Anyone know of any economics electives that arent all that maths based?
    I did economics of social policy and thought that was brilliant

    Economics and Society.
    Intermediate Macro and lots of other level 2 ones. However there is just as many that are all maths. Inter Micro is entirely maths based for instance.

    Quants at 12 today.

    I probably should have studied more, it looks easy enough but I only proper studied it today. :(

    If you enjoy economics and want to take it as far as degree level in Arts, you should be able to make it there even with the most basic of maths skills. Just pick your modules appropriately.

    I thought it was a nice paper but i know I just didn't learn enough...I was looking at the questions saying to myself you SHOULD know this..I'm doing actuary and it's for my first exemption so I'd say I've kissed that goodbye but hopefully I passed :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,969 ✭✭✭antomorro-sei

    Very little maths compared to micro, there is some but not as much.

    Well, unless something goes badly wrong in the marking process, I'll soon have some letters to put after my name, but I'll probably be back later in September.

    If you have to resit a module if you fail it does that mean that you have to repeat the entire modules, as in go back to lectures/labs/tutorials & exam or do you just have to resit the exam?
