Higher level economics is VERY quantitative. If you do not like those things, then don’t plan on pursuing a graduate degree in economics.

As for graduate admissions, however, you will have no trouble being admitted to an economics graduate program after obtaining a BA in Economics, provided you have good grades and test scores. The above poster is grossly incorrect with regards to the graduate school, the degree, and what you may even do as a legislative assistant.

Bottom line: major in what you enjoy.
