Why don't you do the Econ 101 series?

(If you're thinking of doing grad school in economics it's pretty much mandatory).

It doesn't matter if you take A or B first... it depends on what you like macro or micro?

Prof. Wood for Econ 100B is one of the most popular econ professors. It was such a great experience for me to take my first econ class with him. He's funny and explains things really clearly.

I would take B first just b/c Wood is teaching, but you'll have to sign up fast. Last Spring the waitlist for the class was maxed out at 100 students.

I would most definitely take Econ 100B with Wood first.
