Practicality of Undergrad Economics Program?

<p>I honestly have not thought a lot about this, and some of my questions may seem very immature.
But, honestly, what can you do with an undergrad economics program, right after college? MBA would be my eventual goal, but I want some work experience after college as well. Would a lot of the firms even consider you with an undergraduate economics program?
Right now, I'm looking at these colleges: cornell, uchicago, and duke.</p>

<p>of course lol</p>

<p>Your economics degree is as practical as you make it, honestly. It's not some sort of magical pixie dust that will get you into an MBA program.</p>
