<p>Hi guys,</p>
<p>On average, what would be the starting pay of a graduate with an economics major and GPA of >3.8 from Amherst be?</p>
<p>Thank you!</p>
<p>You’re question is irrelevant, get you’re degree first then ask, but as you ask, it could be anywhere from $45k-$65K, but most Econ’s would need a masters/MBA/PhD to work in the field, so starting salary is as I said largely irrelevant and depends on public/private/masters etc, dont see how GPA determines salary never has done for me!</p>
<p>If you go into investment banking, asset management or a few related field the salary could be higher than @Englishman suggested</p>
