Aiming for MSFinance or M.A.Econ (double major w/ MATH or will a minor suffice?)

ANDS! thank you for the reply and suggestion. I think you are absolutely right about the math history class being worthless. I just picked that class as it fit the minimum for graduation with a minor in math. I need to start ignoring the minimum and begin to excel far past it, or I don’t stand a chance.

I’ll most certainly aim for a second year in Diff Equations and Analysis if I am still on track 2-3 years from now.

Here is my revised schedule thanks to the imput provided in this topic. Again greatly appreciated!

Business Econ Major
Sem. 1 [Fall 12’]
ECON 310 Microeconomic Theory (3)
ECON 311 Macroeconomic Theory (3)
ECON 380 Economic Statistics (4)
MATH 111 PreCalc Trigonometry (3)
MATH 113 PreCalc Algebra (3)

Sem. 2 [Spring 13’]
ECON 450 Public Sector Economics (3)
ECON 320 Money and Banking (3)
ECON 485 Econometrics I (4)
MATH 122 Calculus I (4)

Summer
MATH 123 Calculus II (4)

Sem. 3 [Fall 13’]
ECON 330 Game Theory (3)
ECON 470 International Trade (3)
MATH 224 Calculus III (4)
MATH 247 Introduction to Linear Algebra (3)
MATH 233 Fundamental Concepts for Advanced Mathematics (3)

Sem. 4 [Spring 14’]
ECON 486 Econometrics II (4)
MATH 361A Introduction to Mathematical Analysis I (3)
MATH 364A Ordinary Differential Equations I (3)
MATH 380 Probability and Statistics (3)
MATH 347 Linear Algebra (3)

Do you think this is close to being respectable for grad school? I know I’m missing Multivariable Calc and only have a single year of Analysis and Diff Equations…will the aforementioned classes hurt me a lot? Enough to warrant a 5th semester with just these classes?
