<p>Is ECO 202 worth taking later? Which provides better preparation for the Economics department / Which is more rigorous?</p>

2

<p>ORF 245 is more rigorous and will prepare you better for stats-heavy upper level econ and ORF courses. That said, 202 satisfies the econ department’s requirement, so it will prepare you adequately. Basically, 245 is much more mathy than 202.</p>

3

<p>But ORF 245 is super easy anyway (at least according to everyone who’s taken it - and that’s basically every engineer/scientist I know).</p>

4

<p>Scientists/engineers think you’re easy too. ^</p>

5

<p>Are you asking a riddle?</p>

<p>If so, then the answer is obvious:
It is I, Calculus!</p>

6

<p>Is there anything in there that I didn’t learn for AP Stats?</p>

7

<p>it’s not that important. the important thing is to do well in your econometrics course, which either orf245 or eco202 would prepare you well for</p>

8

<p>Is ECO 202 even offered often? I looked up last semester (spring 2010)'s course offerings, and as far as I remember it wasn’t offered back then either (? I could be wrong, though).</p>

9

<p>Yes, it was offered last spring (there were 145 in the class).
