You have one semester left to graduate and you have the finances to do a maximum of four courses. Three of the courses are required courses. The last course slot belongs to an elective. You have narrowed down your choices to three electives, all of which are very popular and very useful courses that you are very interested in. Decide on the course you want to take. Then using at least two economic decision-making principles, explain why you are making this choice. my essay As any other student that is about to graduate , I face tough decision when picking the right classes for my major . Therefore, I have one more semester for my graduation date and I have to pick up four classes . One of the classes needs to be an elective classes because the other three are required for me to graduate. However, I have to choose between three electives classes to complete my semester with for classes , doing this I most approached with the decision to pick either Spanish , Java programming or Statistics but I think I will stick with Java programming . In addition I will have to two consider two decision making principle. Therefore , I will use people face trade-offs and opportunity cost . First , I have to considered the benefit of each classes establish connection with what we called people face trade-offs . For this reason, I have narrow my choices to one classes as my elective to end my semester and finally graduate. the trade- off for something that we like we must give something else . for example , the Spanish classes with contribute to my Spanish language if I travel outside of the United State and it will help me a lot when visiting many Latin American countries . Also , the Statistic class will make my knowledge about economic more understanding and will increase my financial awareness. On the other hand , I will trade off these two electives for the Java programming because it will help with my career goals since my career is engineering in software . taking the java programming class will boost my ability to program, code and compile better . Then , it will make my portfolio more adequate for any interview . Second , is not a secret that in order for something to work out the way we want we must see all options . Similarly , when I choose between my three elective I have to look into the opportunity cost of each of them. For instance , the opportunity cost of the Spanish class and the Java not only is in money which the Spanish course cost $200 more than java and the books for the Spanish class are more expensive one . Yet , the Spanish class is offered in a campus farther from my house now I have to look the time , gas and depreciation of my car. While, my Java electives is at three blocks from my house . Furthermore , the Statistic class is offered online class which means that I have to time manage my time , but the monetary cost of the virtual class is higher than campus . true I will not have to spend in gas or use my car , but the fee will not make for the time travel . Finally , after looking into the two economic decision-making principle people face trade off and the opportunity cost . We can assume that the decision of taking the Java programing is the best alternative for the electives. the Java programming in closed to my house , the fee is lower , and the material are way cheaper than Spanish or Statistic. Also, the Java will improve my resume and will help me for job opportunities
