Also, as a former IPEC major, Econ at Georgetown is very easy, but not terribly useful for further studies unless you spend a lot of your free electives on non-required math courses. You can go through the entire IPEC curriculum and barely know basic economics and have no knowledge of math whatsoever. IECON is essentially the same as an ECON degree in the college, which is good in the sense you will learn more actual economics, but also means you lose out on a lot of the SFS specific courses which are oftentimes much more interesting.

The classes are also very generously curved, 40% of the class takes home an A-/A and I think something like another 20% get B+'s. It isn;t exactly cutthroat to get an A, even in higher level economics courses.
