<p>For everyone applying to Ucla BizEcon and Econ and has TAP what are you putting for your alternate major? Since we can’t put Econ has a back up major anymore. I can’t decide between apply for BizEcon or Econ as I think I have a better chance of getting into Econ. </p>

<p>My alternate major is going to be math/econ even though I wont have all the pre reqs done.</p>

<p>And for those that didn’t know yet.</p>

<p>First choice: Biz-econ. Alternate: Math/Econ. i won’t have all the pre-reqs done for math/econ either, but it’s the closest to what i want that isn’t impacted.</p>

<p>I’m in the same dilemma. </p>

<p>I mean, I was thinking of putting Math/Econ as my alternate like you guys … but since I won’t have all the pre-req’s done … I’m a little hesitant. </p>

<p>Also, I’m not sure if I would be able to handle those high level math classes if I DO get accepted. </p>

<p>I’m torn.</p>

<p>I don’t see bio in the majors that can’t be put as alternates, so does that mean that you can even though it is impacted?</p>

<p>Lol I put econ for main and biz for alt because I did not want to do anything besides econ at LA</p>

<p>Take it from me:</p>

<p>I got in to UCLA this year with my alternate (philosophy). I was a tap applicant for bizecon. </p>

<p>I may still be able to switch into bizecon according to the school, but if not then I will switch into Math/Econ and do a minor in accounting (aka Bizecon on steroids).</p>

<p>Look, people who applied without the prereqs didn’t get in, it’s a rare occasion. However, if you apply with an alternate that is ridiculously easy to get into then switch into math/econ once you’re there, you’ll be golden.</p>

<p>Listing math/econ as alternate even though you know you won’t meet the pre-reqs… how does that work out?</p>

<p>Isn’t that a waste of the alternate major? What do you guys know that I don’t? lol</p>

<p>Swagger, It looks like it is harder to get into UCLA with phil(60.10% admit rate) than math/econ(63.59% admit rate) why did you choose phil over math/econ if you planned on getting math/econ anyway?</p>

<p>Was it based off of not meeting pre-reqs?</p>
