I had Menz and you're in crim101 too right? I think I failed econ103 too with Allen though..

Fucking hell I am going to chew out a professor. I honestly don't care what he can do for my grade, but this idiot has to be dealt with. Anyone have any experience in arguing with a prof? I don't care about the repercussions of my actions pertaining to his class- just don't want to be black listed in the department (of which I need to take a few more courses in).

Good luck, just dont slack ! | noo! im not aiming for a c-. Well, iam , only because im probably getting a little worse than a D right now, and doing superb on the final just isnt going to happen.

In the end though i actually applied myself for the final and i got much higher than my normal average and ended up passing.
Yeah im in crim 101 too, just had the exam today i feel pretty good about it only studied for a half a day. Yeah econ aint easy, if u fall behind one chapter youre fucked. Learnt that the hard way.

Cuz he's gonna need a bunch of A's to get into business.

anyone else at sfu library? I'm downstairs, white guy with pedobear on laptop | really? I found that was the hardest this term. I thought i was on a roll after the first 3-4 mc questions.
What did you do for the 2nd written? I wasn't sure what happened, so I said everything went back to normal 
how is sport econ btw? I need another 200 level econ

how is sport econ btw? I need another 200 level econ | The two multiple choice questions regarding the tutorial discussions threw me off, forgot to review that =/
I said it would stay as it was since everyone is operating optimally, however, because credit tightening would end its possible that people would revert back to their old ways and everything return to were it was.
Was your first written question regarding european union? I felt those two questions were very similar.
And current prof for sports econ is f'n garbage, I wouldn't recommend taking it with him. You'll find yourself experiencing migraines after trying to listen to him explain something.

Hmm I was looking at a bunch actually. I cant do anything upper econ until I have one more 200 level econ. So probably the 300 levels by summer - fall. + econ courses are so hard to get.
So far:
Bus 343 and 336
hsci 140 and 150
Was looking at buec 280 (but heard its a bad prof) Maybe 260 if it opens up. Wanted either 342 or 345 - but no way I can get those yet.
you?
