Simple Question. It shows alot of the forums 🙂 I just finished taking it in High School. It really shows that only 8% of Americans have to take it to graduate High School.
 
Suggest changing the High School options to NOT overlap, e.g. "C or lower" and "B or higher". [ deleted ]


Edit: already did my second suggestion

Just fixed all the grammer, spelling. 🙂
 
There are other financial disciplines besides the dismal science, such as accounting, operations management, business analysis, and my major, Business Finance. Needless to say, I think those with financials background can also claim to have a pretty reasonable grasp of basic and intermediate level economic principles.
 
i took multiple (college) classes (specializing in quantitative econ),
got lots of A's, & got accepted into a PhD program.
 
I want a president to say "If you elect me I am going to raise your taxes and ask the Federal Reserve to increase interests rates." That'd would be the day 🙂

HAHAHAHAHAH! Wow, you managed to name nearly every one of my most hated disciplines in on paragraph...that's AWESOME! 😎
 
I took a macroeconomics class a couple semesters ago. It did not really grasp my attention all that well though.(Got an A-, so no real complaints 😉)
 
Double major Economics and Statistics.

Too dumb to major in real Math😉

Did manage to make it through Linear Algebra and Vector Analysis but that was the end for me.🙁

Either 10th, 11th or 12th grade in high school.(12th grade is the last grade before college)
 
I also studied witchcraft, phrenology, astrology, and underwater basketweaving in college. Sheezh...and I thought a degree in English was worthless.... 🙂

Since you took Statistics you should be much better at prevarication than your posts indicate. 🙂

I'm pursuing an economics and accounting double degree (B.S. + B.B.A.), minor in mathematics, and I'm going to law school after I graduate in Spring 2005.

Yeah, I got through multivariable calc and formal proofs, then I realized that I couldn't do much in formal mathematics; I love statistics, modelling, accounting, and finance, though.
 
Economics did not exist when I was in HS. Then you needed common sense and sweat
 
Considering I started as an accounting major it was required. Macro and micro 14 years ago. But I got really bored and switched to biochem and eventually materials engineering.. Boss wants me to go back and do MBA so I may take again or more...but I'm getting tired of working and after taking management performance classes I can't see myself in school again.😀

I've taken Elementry Probability (stats), Calc1, calc2, calc3, DiviQ1, DiviQ2.
