Jun 17, 2016 at 17:11 comment added James Eaves This line of thought is helpful. Focusing on one period, like the first semester, reduces the missing observations caused by dropouts. But what I find is that there is more variability, than expected, in the courses students take (even within the same major). So I could just consider courses that all (or most) students took - these are core courses, so there is a logic to that. Though since students may decide to take these courses at different semesters, this may introduce self-selection bias - but that choice may also be useful information. Thanks- I'd up-vote your response if I could :)
