<p>This is true, but I’d rather be in school and simultaneously be searching for an idea than be living in my parents’ basement JUST searching for an idea. I like somewhat of a sense of security along with my entrepreneurial risk taking nature.</p>
<p>I suggest that everyone in this thread switches to communication. Econ/business is too competitive and as such you’ll be in for a life of hardships. </p>
<p>something something…</p>
<p>yeah. don’t compete against me.</p>

<p>and for those who say you need accounting for econ… it’s a handy thing that I got an accounting certificate from my CC isn’t it? The certificate might be largely worthless on it’s own but it does supplicate other degrees fairly well. Heck I’d say it has more value than a bachelor’s in communication from a CSU(which is really sad when you think about it)</p>
<p>im econ at UCSD, UCD, and UCSB (all accepted), and environmental economics and policy at UCB (pending obviously).</p>
<p>@1netruesole</p>
<p>uci requires linear alegbra for econ major whereas other uc’s require 2 or more calc classes. and xelink did a new job presenting all this to us.</p>
<p>UCD: Econ, accepted
UCSD: Econ, accepted
UCSB: Econ & Accounting, accepted</p>
<p>UCB: Econ, pending
UCLA: BizEcon, pending</p>
<p>I figured that BizEcon with accounting classes will will give me more options after undergraduate. I’m not sure if I want to go to grad school for accounting, just go out and work, or try grad school for econ. I love econ, but if I major in econ and can’t do the graduate work (due to the math), I don’t want to be stuck/not-recruited because I don’t have accounting knowledge. I could be all wrong, this is just my personal reasoning.</p>
<p>I don’t know why you guys are comparing Biz with Econ. To me, they are two completely different things. I say that econ is more closely related to industrial engineering/operations research than to biz. sure you can use econ for applications in business (may be this is what bizecon is all about?) but econ can also be useful if you want to analyze, lets say, behaviors of mmorpg players (research by econ phd at ucb).</p>
<p>Econ does require more math (and any decent econ program should) than business . In fact, you will probably forget your math (xcept algebra) if you take only business classes. To give you an example, one of my friends who is an IEOR major took a business class (Haas microecon). He was surprised when some of the business students did not understand why derivatives have to be set to 0 to get maximum/minimum ROFLMAO.</p>
<p>
Business is the social science of managing people to achieve a certain productive goal, like generating revenue. Business is a subset of economics in that sense.</p>
<p>congrats dude, you don’t know what business is.</p>
<p>also, LOL at UCB students who are presented with cubic or pentic functions and are required to find a critical point and to analyze it. HAHAHA. have fun…</p>
<p>Let’s revive!!</p>
<p>Cal Econ - Rejected
UCLA Biz Econ - Rejected
Davis Econ - Accepted (but switching to Managerial Econ)
Irvine Biz Econ - Accepted
UCSD Management Science - Accepted</p>
<p>Where to go… :(</p>
<p>post your stats:D</p>
<p>3.7
IGETC complete after this quarter
All pre-reqs done for every college, except Math1C for Irvine (might get rescinded…)
TAG for UCSD
Good essays
Strong EC’s (club position, tennis team, leadership positions at church/community sports teams, etc)</p>
<p>how good of an EC is being a tutor in community college.</p>
<p>yeah it’s subjective but how applicable is that in terms of how the applicant is viewed for admission to x college. (SD, UCI, and SB)</p>
<p>Quad Financial Modeling>Everything</p>
<p>Its here now and its the future</p>
<p>@nujabes29
it’s good.</p>
<p>
nujabes29, UCSB only requires calc1 and calc2 and lin alg just like UCI. UCSD requires calc 1 2 and 3 but no linear algebra.</p>
<p>Does it count if I wanna do financial engineering or something for grad school? :p</p>
<p>econ represent</p>
<p>thugged out</p>
<p>:cool:</p>
