Business or economics?

College Majors Business Majors

<p>I’m about to be a third year in college and i still cant decide a major. I decided doing something broad will be best but im still having trouble deciding between two. I know its been asked to death but i wonder which path do you think would help me best?

  1. Doing economics which would allow me to get out early but not sure if I’ll get as good of grades
  2. Business major which may not look as good and will be a little harder getting classes, but i can most likely get better grades.</p>

<p>-Either way i plan on getting my MBA eventually and i really just want to keep my doors open in order to go into a variety of different fields. So what sounds better? Any comments would be helpful so thanks in advance</p>

<p>What is the business concentration you’re looking at? Business degrees with concentrations in marketing are drastically different from business degrees in finance, for example.</p>

<p>If it’s literally just a “business” degree covering really general management stuff then I would go for economics. You can leverage yourself into a finance or accounting position with an economics degree and it looks great on graduate/law school applications.</p>
