<p>I agree with your choice to study math/econ if you decide to go to Dartmouth. </p>
<p>If you decide to go to Northwestern, I’d recommend Econ-IEMS dual major program + Kellogg certificate.</p>
<p>Have you done a lot of research on what IB really is? What do associates actually do? What kind of person they look for? They are still pretty competitive and not easy to get. If you don’t fit the type they look for, even going to Dartmouth wouldn’t help you much.</p>
<p>I also think IEMS-Econ + Kellogg cert would open more doors in more variety of areas outside the IBD.</p>
<p>So I think the decision largely depends on how sure you think IB is for you.</p>
