'price elasticity of (use ur imagination here) after a midterm?' ask it in this class.. Chilled pace with 15 weeks to cover 10 chapters, simple midterm, and 2 weeks to review for the final.

Mz. Manzoor is an experienced teacher, she cares more about your success in the class more than anything else. Exams and group project are pretty simple if you do your work on time. Catch her before class if you've got any questions and she'll make them all "crystal clear." A chapter a week and you'll keep your grade at a peak.
