[quote=Anonymous]Depends on the school. Economics majors at the vast majority of universities is terrible. It's basically a major for students that cannot excel in any other subject and want something vaguely "technical" for jobs. For schools with an undergrad business school that requires applying to get into, always go with Finance, and only Economics if Economics is also within the business school (i.e. at Wharton, not the liberal arts college at Penn). At these schools, Economics majors are basically kids who couldn't get into STEM or the business school. At the Ivies without business schools, generally the Economics major is chosen by kids that would've otherwise done finance. But even at Harvard and MIT, the Economics majors are relatively bad compared to other majors. It's a cash cow program, basically. [/quote]
