    Intro to quantitative economics is very easy if you've done honours maths at LC. By very I mean VERY.

    What about someone who did pass maths 7 years ago :)

    Yes. Its one of the simplest mathematical modules in UCD. Go for it.

    If you can't do it then theres no point in going near economics for your degree.

    I did LC pass maths, and found quantitative economics easy enough, I'd definitely recommend the tutorials, if you go to them and the lectures you'll be fine.

    Excellent guys, thanks for the responses. My decision is made - History/Politics/Economics.

    Fun fun!

    I'd say its one of the few modules in college you wouldn't need to go to a single lecture or tutorial to get an A.

    Not necessarily, if you did honours maths maybe, but as I said, I did ordinary level and got an A, and a lot of the material was completely new to me, so if someone struggled at ordinary level, they are obviously going to find it tricky. If you're naturally good at maths, of course you'll find it easy, but it's not overly easy for everyone.
