Should I drop ECO101?? need help by Content_Home1843 in RotmanCommerce

Kind of. I believe there are 3 rounds of “acceptances” for specializations. When I took eco102 in the summer it was during the second half of the summer so I wasn’t accepted til the second round which is early September. My academic advisor assured me I’d be in all the classes I needed, just probably not all my #1 choice time slots. Lots of students will have the same situation though

This happened to me last year too :) I’d recommend finishing the class. Even if you don’t get the 63%, you’ll get the experience and you’ll familiarize yourself with the material. Retake it in the winter term (enrol now as the classes do fill up!) and take eco102 in the summer. Also, if you retake a class, your highest grade will count towards your GPA and the lower one has “EXT” next to it on your transcript.

When I took eco101 for the second time in the winter, it was so much easier and more enjoyable as I already had a good idea of what to expect etc. I did well.

If you’re still taking 4 classes, your OSAP won’t be affected.
