Use with the text
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
This handbook is only for the companion with the textbook, not a systematic introduction in SAS. If your teacher use "Learning and Practicing Econometrics" for text, you should get this handbook. This handbook definitely help you in getting good grade and femiliar with SAS by practicing. However, it means this book is nearly useless if you do not have the text.
Excellent on intuition and good preparation for Greene
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
This book is very good at giving brand new students of econometrics the intuition behind concepts. At the same time, it does not ignore the mathematics (calculus and linear algebra) and thus it is a good preparation for Greene.One thing I don't like about this book is notation. For example, the book refers to the mean as beta instead of mu. I do prefer Gujarati?s notation much better.It would also be very nice to have an update of this great textbook since it was written in 1993. Thank you,
Econometrics and SAS were meant to be together

I thought that this manual really helped me in my job. It was a great aid to the knowledge that I already had about SAS and has been a wonderful resource for me.
Good applied econometrics for undergraduates
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This book is excellent for beginners in econometrics. It is particuarly useful for people not wanting to know all the mathematics ( algebra and matrix approach) behind econometrics. Students doing term papers find it very practical as they want to know how to go from theoretical econometrics to empirical econometrics.
The Perfect Bridge to Greene
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
This is a great beginner's textbook. Whereas some, like Greene, are going to be too hard for some beginners, and others like Gujarati are far too basic, this book strikes an excellent balance. It's best feature is all the worked examples is gives you, including the raw data used, allowing you to enter the data into a statistical package and make sure you get the same result. This is a great confidence builder!
