IU a good, prestigious school?

Well, maybe not everyone can get an A in A100–apparently 5 out of the 6 people who signed up for the class couldn’t do so. My son got through it, but only with an C+. He can move on to an easier classes now. I agree that three of the four required Economics courses are slightly tougher courses (my son took E202 and got a B). Fortunately, he loved C121 and X100 (A+ and A in these–missed the A+ in this second course by 3 points out of 1000 possible). Then he got one A and one B in his two history courses (his gen ed distribution major).

I agree with A2Wolves6’s assessment. Take the accounting and econ courses offsite if you can get ones that transfer, then take the other courses (which are easier for the most part) on-site to build up the GPA. It’s difficult to do that for any courses that are required to get into Kelley, however, since you have to get them on the transcript if you want to apply for sophomore year admittance. This is the reason my son will be taking the Survey of Calculus, English Composition, and Computer in Business courses next semester.

Hey, dammitsam, who did you take for M118 (Finite Math)? Apparently you got a pretty good professor based upon your comments.
