Has anyone taken Econ 141 before?

Econ 141 has more in common with Stat 134 and Stat 135. I’m taking it with Nekipelov this semester and we’ve pretty much covered nearly all the important stuff from Stat 134 in the last 2 weeks. We’ve just started to go over Stat 135 stuff. Econ 141 is also all about regression analysis which is covered in the last part of Stat 135. I’d recommend taking at least Stat 134 before taking Econ 141. From what I can tell, a significant number of people in the class have taken Stat 134 before, so if you don’t, you’ll be at a severe disadvantage.

The only relevant knowledge from Math 53 is knowing how to solve multiple integrals. You need to know this for working with distribution functions of continuous random variables. You need to know this for Stat 134 as well.
