No it's not tough, and you are better off double majoring in some quantitative field.

It really depends where you go to school. At my school if a business student wants to double concentrate in both, he only needs to take 4 extra courses. I would imagine at others it is more involved.

It is not very difficult. 90% of the required classes overlap.

It's not going to give you an edge with other applicants. Choose one.
