Talking Econ is Fun!!!

Yup, that's right, Economics are fun!

After two years of calculus and physics, it's my first Econ class and I'm liking it. Just taking a break from studying for my final tomrrow morning at 8:30..... or should I say in 5 hours???

Anybody else here that's taken business before?

I have 30 pages left to read and understand. Can I do it?

Please do come back, I will be updating this thread overnight, as this breath-taking saga develops.

To Be Continued...

Well I'm off to take a shower, eat something and go and write the test....

Nothing beats a night filled with Economics. I can still feel the adrenaline rush that I had when I learned about supply & demand haha

Took business at NAIT years ago.. (grad 96 baby! represent! )

Never went anywhere with it. (unless you call working in a warehouse picking orders using my business diploma!)

Eventually I went back to school and got my Programmer/Analyst diploma, so I'm finally working in a field I enjoy!

Hope your exam went well Mak! Econ was among one of my favorites when I took it...

Nope, heard that it's addictive, and that you'll waste a LOT of time once you get hooked on it..... I'll pass hehe
I was a huge Quake fan when it came out, so I'm positive that I'd be an addict in no time....

REally? Well if I do'nt go into physics or math, it's business for me... and there isn't that many jobs out there?

traffik, congratulations on your milestone.... but damn you're scaring me hehe, you should be banned from using the monkey!

Nah - there's lots of jobs out there... especially in the finance/accounting end of it. For me, I just realized about halfway through my second year that I didn't really like it, but I was too far in to quit.

SO, I just decided to finish the program, get my diploma and leave it at that. Although I never pursued a job in that field, having that diploma on my resume definitly helped me get the job I have right now, even though I don't actually do any accounting/finance type things.
