<p>Science I can assume is very competitive at LA due to pre-meds, but if you guys can describe your experiences and how difficult it is, that would be helpful. Also, does business economics actually compare to the difficulty of majoring in science due to the competition? Besides engineering, would you consider the majors I've listed to be one of the most demanding considering all factors? Finally, for biz econ majors, can you give me a summary of what goes on, the classes you're taking, and how hard you have to push to get the grade you want?</p>
<p>easy for all.</p>
<p>^lol.......</p>
<p>Biz Econ = Econ + Accounting major + some special 106 classes. </p>
<p>With that said, I'm doing Econ + Acc so its almost the same. Just lack of the 106 and prestige :(. </p>
<p>So we take Econ classes and Accounting classes. Yeah. I don't have to push THAT hard. I didnt push at all last year. I studied 7 hours before the test. So if the test was at 10AM, I would start studying at 3AM. I managed to get nearly a 3.0 GPA doing that. This year I just study regularly and I get A's. I don't feel a lot of competition. Like the people are not cuthroat. The only class I feel competition is any accounting course with Litt. Litt uses his past tests a lot and a lot of people have them, so it puts me at a disadvantage if I dont have it. Many don't want to share it either, lol.</p>
<p>This is highly variable. For one thing, consider the implementation of the curve and keep in mind how many students fail and the idea that not all college students are not 100% studious or consistent with their work. That and then you have the progression into higher courses that become more competitive because of the weeding out process. </p>
<p>Can't really compare BizEcon to the sciences (again, even the sciences have their breadth of competition... an extreme example would be comparing a curve in say upper division engineering courses versus the first courses of say, the chemistry sequence for pre-meds). You'd need to get an idea of curve-setting and then the generosity (or lack thereof) of the professors involved... never mind the variability in a typical Econ 1 or Econ 2 course and then the actual sciences ones.</p>
