<p>I have a good friend at Penn who is majoring in PPE with the intention of heading to law school. From what she’s told me, only two economics classes are necessary to graduate with a PPE major; the other 12 or so classes can be taken in philosophy or politics subject areas. Based on that, I would think that a student who is interested mostly in business would want to stick with an entirely-econ major. This is a link to the PPE website:</p>

<p>Also, mickt13, I really don’t think I would equate PPE to triple-minoring. A normal minor at Penn consists of around 8 classes, and a normal major (in CAS, at least) consists of around 14. As a PPE major, you’d be taking fewer classes in each of the three subject areas than if you were to minor in all three (which I don’t think is possible).</p>
