<p>Hi, today my brother got his early decision acceptance into Columbia for BioMedical Engineering. I am a freshman in high school and I've learned a lot about the admissions process by watching him do it. I, as of right now, hope to become a lawyer and major in Economics for undergrad. I had two questions regarding it.
1. If I want to become a lawyer, is economics a good major?
I want a major that will help me get a high GPA and get into law school but at the same time be a good choice if I wanted to get a job right after undergrad. Are there jobs for economics majors?</p>
<ol>
<li>My brother completed a three year Science Research program at my school and has no published a paper. This is one of his main pieces of his application and probably helped him get into this BioMedical Engineering program.
If I wanted to major in Economics, what would be an equivalent thing i could do that would help me get into a good program. In other words, Science Research is to BioMedical Engineering Major as ?X? is to Economics Major.</li>
</ol>
<p>Thanks</p>
