Currently deciding Biz econ vs econ on which to apply to. I am in the Transfer Alliance Program (TAP) which places really well into UCLA (91% acceptance last year). I understand that my chances for getting in are pretty slim because of my two Bs in the major rec math classes. On one hand biz econ has a higher acceptance GPA so it will be more competitive but my Major GPA will be higher because there are more classes. On the other hand econ has a lower admittance gpa but my in major gpa will be lower because there are less classes. Which major should I apply as? I plan on putting down stats as my backup major but have no intentions of attending UCLA if i get in for it.
