<p>I don't know why I'm putting this in the Harvard section (maybe because Harvard is extremely good at economics), but I was just wondering about learning Economics in college. Is it fun? Is it useful? Isn't it a lot different than high school consumer economics (that's what I heard)? Is it hard? I like math and am pretty good at it, but I doubt I'm even comparable to some of those crazy math geniuses. I will take BC Calc by Senior year. Anyway, I'm interested in a career in something like business, but have heard that learning business undergrad is rather useless; you can learn it all in grad school. And economics seems very versatile (just in case, you know), teaches you logic, makes you think, and is even useful throughout life because EVERYONE talks about the economy. Keep in mind I'm not JUST wanting to major in economics because I want to do business, that's just PART of it. Also, how hard is economics at top colleges (not limited to the Ivies; also colleges like Duke, Berkeley, Michigan, etc)? I don't mind using hard math as long as I'm mentally able to learn it (lol). Anyway, please talk about college economics in general!</p>
