What grade did you get in Econometrics?

A - .

A.

how difficult did you find it?

A+

this is columbia, but still good to know: http://www.culpa.info/courses/5061

from that site: "In econometrics, you learn how to do linear regressions, i.e. quantitatively determining how one or more independent variables correlates with a dependent variable. Most of the class is the math behind it.

It’s a hard class, and it sucks. In lecture I felt like I was sitting in a dark room, and there were only glimmers of light. I habitually became infuriated when working on problem sets and realized that Prof. Von Wachter had not covered the material yet. I found the lectures somewhat muddled, the textbook only marginally better. The TA didn’t know a thing either. This was by far the worst class I have taken in my econ major."

i got an A at wharton though

My professor was a d**khead (I had my small measure of revenge on ratemyprofessors), I managed a B+, but felt I learned nothing.

A

withdrawl fail

B, freakishly difficult and boring.

If it isn't required for your major, I wouldn't even bother taking it. Really, what's the point?

A

But I was highly annoyed by the course and its content...absolutely in no way applicable to anything I do on the job.

A

It's not really relevant for much unless you want a Ph.D. in Economics.

Dumb class, nobody cares if you all got A's...

I remember the people who had the hardest time in it were econ majors and the best being stats/math majors

highest mark out of a class of 45 people... and i got like what would be equivalent to a B+... 30% of class failed, really depends on the teacher, if he is trying to be a jerk he can really make your life a living hell. if you dont have to take it then DONT. i barely use anything i saw in that class, just take an advanced calculus based stat class and you will be golden

I thought all econ majors need to take it

I majored in Econ, and I didn't take it. Had to take an applied statistical analysis class, though.

B in Econometrics I & Multivariate Stat and B+in Time Series. Could do better if I took the prerequisites.

B+

B+ with an 89.9 avg. Not getting an A- in that class will haunt me the rest of my life.

B+

Thought it was the one of the most useful classes I took in school. I find it extremely bizarre for an econ major to not take this class as it is your only opportunity to "do economics". I have used it multiple times at work (corp finance) and it always impresses people.

A-

A. Only class I ever went to see the tutor for regularly. Hard but cool. Stata is pretty dope. Professor was a little Chinaman who would do the Gangham Style dance before exams.
