ECON 1B03 Text
Hi, quick question about this course since I know many people here have taken it. I know Holmes' policy is that she never tests anything that is not on the slides. However the assigned study guide questions tests terms that she hasn't talked about. So why did she assign them?
Also, do you think its better to just read the text to be on the safer side?
Thanks

To be on the "safer" side, yes, you should.

If you have taken econ before in high school, I managed to get an 11 without the text. If you have never taken any kind of business course before, id recommend it. If you took stuff in high school or uni, id say pass

Also, the previous edition is perfectly fine. Only the practice problems answers that she posts online aren't the same
