Intro to Economics

Part 1:

            Personally, I do not know much at all about economics except the basics. I understand supply and demand curves, incentives, and opportunity costs. I have a loose comprehension of topics such as compound interest, credit, and financial markets.

Part 2:

            I took this class for quite a few reasons actually. First of all, I wanted to take an AP class that I think I would be able to grasp. Economics strays away from the history which I have taken for the last two years. It will be nice to have something different that I am more comfortable with. Also my parents have pushed for me to get more involved and take harder classes so that is what I have done. Lastly, the simple answer which is that it will give me a boost on my GPA.

Part 3:

1.      In all honesty if there was one thing in life that I could not live without it would be the internet. I use the internet every day for much of the day whether it is for listening to music or communicating with friends via social media.

2.      I do not have a strong preference toward a company but I especially enjoy Dairy Queen’s ice cream. I guess if I had to choose a company it would be that. Their ice cream is easier to eat and I think that it tastes better.

3.      I am most likely going to pursue a career in engineering whether it be aerospace, automotive, or even bioengineering. I have always had an interest in stuff like this and the fact that my father is an engineer and enjoys his work makes it even more appealing to me.
