Social Anxiety Support

So, I'm trying to decide which classes I'm going to take for fall and I've got one more spot left to fill. The class I'm considering taking is an economics class. But I'm conflicted. I barely passed the last econ class I took. I'm scared that I might not be able to pass this time around. But I don't want my transcript to be full of easy classes either.

Should I risk it?

I always enjoyed econ classes and did well, but they were challening. I say go for it. If all other classes are easy you could be bored?

Yeah, that's true. If I'm gonna pay the outrageous prices for these classes might as well get the most out of it. At this point I'm strongly leaning towards taking the class. Mainly because I calculated my gpa and I'll still be able to salvage a 3.5 if I get one C.

3.5 is good. And those econ classes look good on job resumes etc. Is it macro/micro or more advanced. Econ seemed like an art form rather than a discipline. I think that is why I liked it.

It's micro. Last semester I took macro. After this class I think that will probably be it for my studies in economics. The thing that I find difficult about it is that it's such a complex subject. I prefer things to be simple and straight forward like government (I'm a polisci major).

Simple is nice, but those econ classes will be a huge help to you later. The variables are a lot to consider in the econ classes, but it's just another graph to understand, lol. Good luck.
