Reviews
This class was incredibly difficult and didn't provide any room for failure. Your grade only depends on the midterm and final (which threw curveballs–the final especially). Hahn himself was very sweet and eager to answer student questions. The way the class is structured is where I have my complaints. I spent hours studying outside of class so it was defeating to not even get a C. If you need to take ECON 41, go into it with a prepared study plan so you can avoid getting caught off guard or falling behind.
