I’ve seen a lot of Econ related posts recently, and biggest piece of advice for you guys I have is to be realistic about yourself. If you can’t keep a 3.0 in the prereqs do you really think the major is for you? Do you honestly feel like this is for sure what you want to do, and do you honestly believe that your GPA will improve once you start taking upper divs?

The math prereq isn’t significantly more difficult than the other prereqs, and its not like the material gets much easier after you get passed the weeders.

If you honestly just messed up one class and you really enjoy the material and know you can do better, then go for it. Its actually not as intimidating to keep a 3.0 even with a C when you think that if you get one A, now all your other classes need to be B’s.
