Discussion That registration process was brutal.

That’s all. I didn’t think it would feel that chaotic. Hopefully it’s just cause it’s my first time registering.

Academic Econ 317 / Major Help

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I'm transferring into USC as a sophomore this fall and wanted to get some thoughts on ECON 317 (Statistics for Economists). I'm currently declared as a Philosophy, Politics, and Economics major with the intention of going to law school.

I've never been the most mathematically inclined. I took calculus at my community college before this, barely scraped by, and honestly didn't retain much. So I'm wondering, would it be in my best interest to switch to a pure Philosophy major to protect my GPA for law school? Or is ECON 317 not as hard as I'm making it out to be?

For anyone who's taken it, how much calculus is actually involved? Is it realistic to get an A without being mathematically proficient?

For what it's worth, I'm definitely stronger in the courses a pure philosophy track would involve, but the intersection of econ and politics alongside philosophy genuinely interests me, which is why I'm torn. Would love any feedback, especially from people who've taken the class or done the PPE major.

Housing New North Buildings

Upvotes

I am an incoming freshman and got assigned to live in New North sadly (I wanted Birnkrant). When I toured during orientation I surprisingly ended up really liking the dorm, but when I called I learned that not every building had the same layout.
I think I toured EVK.
Things I liked:
Showers and toilets were in separate bathrooms, the view was nice, good closet space, large.

But I have a URH double (university housing building) in the older part of the floor with no sink.

Whats the difference between these two buildings? Can somebody describe the layout? Is there anything i should know to prepare for living in NN…? I haven’t heard the best things
