[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can anyone say what is the difference between a BA and a BS in Econ? My student is very strong in math and is looking at Econ as a second degree choice after Math. [/quote] It’s not about the degree type, but the actual courses. Any Econ program without econometrics, advanced econometrics, linear algebra, time series, and probability required or heavily suggested is a complete wash of a degree.[/quote] Again, not true. Lots of career paths are not that quantitative and do not require all of this. If you want to do quant stuff, by all means do as much math as possible, but it is not some universal thing. So much bad info on this thread from bitter quants.[/quote] Attempting a quantitative degree and refusing to do math makes you a poor fit for Econ and someone who shouldn’t be in a quantitative field. There’s much space in anthropology for social scientists who eschew mathematical reasoning.[/quote]
