Thanks for the link. I have no idea how you found it, because I swear I can't find a link, but maybe I'm just an idiot. (Wouldn't that bode badly for my prospects in ORFE? )

yea well, no where on your degree does it say anything about being computer literate... i guess you can just hire someone to do your excel spreadsheets

im pretty strongly against doing orfe for money because the degree is really applied math with some programming and would caution any prefrosh thinking of orfe to consider doing sociology or english since you'll realistically pull a higher gpa and that is what an ibank is looking for - gpa.

i'm interested in economics. hmm. how much economics does ORFE have?

More or less as much as you want it. A very large number of ORFE students take ECO 100 (intro microecon) and ECO 310 (the harder upper level math-based microecon course). Other than that, it varies widely. Lots of ORFE students do the finance certificate and so will take ECO 362, 363 and some other electives, while others just take economics for fun. Personally, I'm probably going to focus on investments, derivatives, and that kind of stuff, and so will take a bunch of economics related to that.

There are no economics courses actually required for the ORFE degree, however. Economics works in extremely well with ORFE, but it's really your choice.
