<p>You’re lucky…and you’re not.</p>
<p>There had been a requirement to take 5 courses (2 calc, macro, micro, and stats) with a GPA of 2.8 to be accepted for Management Econ. Until that time, a student was technically a pre-major. Under that, they would accept up to your second try at any of the above courses. You would have had to re-take Math 16B.</p>
<p>But they just changed it this summer, getting rid of the pre-declaration GPA requirement. See the letter at <a href=“http://agecon.ucdavis.edu/undergraduate-program/files/2012/letter-entrance-requirement.pdf[/url]”>http://agecon.ucdavis.edu/undergraduate-program/files/2012/letter-entrance-requirement.pdf</a> . Frankly, it is now easier to become a management econ major.</p>
<p>But you still have to take a year of calc, and as usual, all courses needed for a major must be passed with a grade of C or better. So… you still need to re-take Math 16B.</p>
<p>Forgetting about the Management Econ issue for the moment, why would anyone want to move on to a “c” course if he doesn’t understand the material in a “b” course. Sounds like a recipe for further disaster. I would take 16B again, and attend small group tutoring at the SASC center. If that doesn’t result in a good grade, I personally would re-evaluate the choice of any math-based major.</p>
