    nice video once again Avery, looking forward to your upcoming ones

    As someone who is a civil engineer but went to the field of Economics, has a Ph.D. from Aus, and back to the PH teaching in a Uni, I can see the value of engineers knowing basic Microeconomics and probably macroeconomics as well. Glad you enjoyed your ECON 101!

    • @AveryCheng

      Thanks! I'm thinking of taking macroeconomics in ECON 102 as my other elective next year, so it's good to know that knowing economics is an asset for engineers!

      @@AveryCheng You should consider it! Engineers are vital for the Economic growth and development of country and having that knowledge as to where you are contributing to the economy will be an eye-opener! :)

    • @AveryCheng
      @AveryCheng  Рік тому +1

      I'll definitely keep that in mind as my big-picture motivation for taking macroeconomics next year!

    Hey yoo! I'm enjoying your videos bro. I'll be waiting for the individual detailed course descriptions. And hoping to meet you this coming fall👷🙃

      Thanks! Glad to see a prospective first-year UBC engineering student watching my vids :))

    Amazing video. A little scary that exams can sometimes be so disconnected from the rest of the course. Thanks for the info.

      Sometimes engineering courses are just like that 🤷🏻‍♂️

    I am going into ubc engineering this september and this video is scaring me lol. I am thinking about moving some of my courses into the summer, which courses would you recommend I move and do you think reducing my courseload would make me less competitive for 2nd year placements? ( I am not in the pre-biomedical engineering program and is also taking econ 101 for my elective)

    • @AveryCheng

      First of all, I promise you that it isn't as bad as it initally looks. You'll feel overwhelmed at first, but you'll then get used to it. But if you're not convinced by that, the courses that I'd recommend you move to the summer are PHYS 158 (which you will take PHYS 118 in the summer), your elective, or WRDS. However, there is a chance your elective and WRDS will have higher marks relative to the core engineering courses, which will bring your average up for 2nd year placements (this was the case for me).
      It's all about trade-offs; whether or not you want to take the full courseload now, or dedicate your summer to some of these courses. Another note though: around 90% of students get into one of their top three choices for 2nd year placements. Just keep that in mind...

    hi, massive thanks for your video, i have this question that do i need to create saved schedule for my first year engineering? Math 100and chem somehow can not be added to my schedule.

    • @AveryCheng
      @AveryCheng  21 день тому

      I'm honestly not sure how the first-year schedules work now with Workday, as I'm still trying to figure it out with my third-year courses. There are probably some resources out there to help you with your problem

    My Chem 154 midterm average was 49% :( Definitely an F tier for me as well lol

      Yes, he definitely told me a lot about it LOL

      Sorry , typo, he hates apsc 101 rather than 160 lol

      Grade reveals will be in my individual vids for each of these courses because I hadn't received all my final grades back at the time of filming lol
