Like other tier one schools below Harvard and Wharton (i.e. Yale, Dartmouth, Columbia, Stanford, Duke, and a few others), Dartmouth is good at placing undergrads in all majors into elite investment banks. Even though some say that what you major in doesn’t matter at all, you should major in something improve your critical thinking ability by really pushing you to think (i.e. econ, math, sciences, etc.) as opposed to famous easy majors that arguably require less thinking (i.e. history, language studies, etc.). In addition, your GPA matters way more than what you major in. Between an econ major with 3.8 GPA and an econ/applied math double major with 3.7 GPA, the econ major with the 3.8 may get the job.
