  Are you one of those who think a degree is a ticket to "success"?

  If so, I suggest you don't bother trying. Econs is not for the faint-of-heart.

  Then again, learning in general is not for the faint-of-heart.

  Learning to learn is not easy to learn. If what you "learn" does not challenge you in anyway, how is that learning at all?

  Have fun.

  Econs is actually one of the more popular courses, especially at FASS. What bad stuff have you heard about it?
