<p>Okay, so I know a lot of people have probably asked this, but I have researched it and haven't been able to get a solid answer. And now I'm hearing rumors and its sort of freaking me out.</p>
<p>I'm a bio major (first-year) and am planning on switching to the Econ major. I have (right now) a 3.85 GPA.</p>
<p>What are my chances of getting into the major and how competitive is it? Also, if you get a A- or B+ in Econ 1 are you screwed? Any general tips or advice would be greatly appreciated.</p>
<p>Econ is simple as hell.
Biz-Econ is the one that has a little competition, but not that much at all. You need a 3.3 primary score (formula you can look up - just google it). The one’s who don’t meet Biz-Econ standards fall back to regular econ.</p>
<p>If you have a 2.0, you CAN be an econ major.</p>
<p>Yeah the Econ classes are generally not that competitive. Some are curved, some aren’t.</p>
<p>^Econ classes are practically the same as Business Econ classes with a few exceptions. -.-</p>
<p>Even when Econ classes are not curved, the class average is usually still close to a B or B-.</p>
