Hi, Math and Econ at Yale is a very hard major–one of the hardest. The people who choose this major are super super bright students. The psets are very time consuming but if it’s what you like, this is a highly useful and rewarding major. If you don’t have a great math background, I would recommend starting off with Econ first and then deciding if you want to do Math and Econ. There are tons of internship and research opportunities with Math and Econ. That shouldn’t be a worry–there’s always a lot to do.

I also don’t recommend double majoring–it will be very hard to choose other classes and there are soooo many cool classes you wouldn’t want to miss out on.

Let me know if you have any other questions!
