Wharton/CAS

<p>If I wanted to do a dual degree with CAS (maybe math... I have not idea... this is hypothetical), would I just have to satisfy the 12 requirements? Or would I also have to satisfy the general requirements? In general, how many extra courses outside of th major would this involve? Thanks!</p>

<p>You have to do all of the CAS requirements as a dual degree. Your free electives, though, can all come from Wharton.</p>

<p>no offense intended, but you don’t dabble in math as a second major at any top school. University-level mathematics is on a completely different plane from anything at Wharton. Upper undergraduate requirements in real analysis and algebra are more difficult than any PhD class in the Wharton school. So unless one is a top student (capable of reaching state or regional-level finals in math competitions), the major may lie beyond reach.</p>

<p>Also, as a practical concern, banking recruitment is solely a function of GPA, rarely adjusted for difficulty of curriculum. A 3.7 finance concentration is likely to trump a 3.5 math major even though it is much, much harder to achieve that level of success in math.</p>
