ECON 131 - Environmental Economics (Jacobsen)
Econ 131 is a wonderful elective. Environment economics is one of the best applications of economics theory and it is a very important topic for the health of our planet. Econ 131 is an application of the theory that you learned in your other economics courses, but with less mathematics and less stress. For Econ 131 Prof Jacobsen typically has two midterms and a final as well as four problem sets. I have video reviews and playbooks to guide you through each step of the course and ensure that you have a successful quarter! Studying the old exam questions is vital for doing well in the course. The exam reviews are organized around old test questions and I have a separate review devoted to the latest practice exams. The reviews are recorded and posted on my auxiliary website, so you can watch them at your convenience. A tentative schedule is given below. The actual dates may vary but there will be three to four reviews for each exam and one review for each problem set. The reviews average 90 minutes. They provide quick overviews of the key topics and step-by-step instruction. A former college instructor, I went to graduate school at UCSD in Economics and was a teaching assistant for the Econ 100 and 120 series. More importantly, I have been tutoring electives for UCSD Economics students for more than 20 years including all the times that Prof Jacobsen has taught Econ 131.
