[quote=Anonymous]My undergraduate was in Econ at UMD. It has a top graduate program that attracts many talented students. Its not a waste, but it depends on what you want to do in the future. Whether you go the BA vs BS route, one with an emphasis on policy , and the other with an emphasis on complex data analysis. If you’re not strong in math, the BS will be difficult. You’ll find that the vast majority of Econ majors don’t pursue econ in graduate school. Alot of my teaching assistants were either math or physics majors in undergrad. A BS degree will help in finance and banking, a BA degree will help in government/non profit/ maybe even law school. I’m a CPA now, but the econ major covered alot of my required classes. I love the subject, but maybe majoring in accounting and minoring in Econ would have been better for me! [/quote]
