<p>We’ve been over this before. Theres no undergraduate program in this country that requires anywhere near that much math naura.</p>
<p>The schools you listed for example
Harvard requirements: <a href=“http://www.economics.harvard.edu/undergraduate/requirements/Requirements.pdf[/url]”>http://www.economics.harvard.edu/undergraduate/requirements/Requirements.pdf</a>
MIT: <a href=“http://econ-www.mit.edu/under/majors.htm[/url]”>http://econ-www.mit.edu/under/majors.htm</a><br>
Chicago: <a href=“http://economics.uchicago.edu/undergrad_concentrators.shtml[/url]”>http://economics.uchicago.edu/undergrad_concentrators.shtml</a></p>
<p>At most schools you have to take two semesters of calc, a semester of stat, and econometrics. At Chicago you also have to take Math 19510-19610 Applied Math for Soc. Sci. </p>
<p>Additionally, every students at MIT, in any major, is required to take a semester of multi-variable calculus (but only two total semesters of calc). </p>
<p>Maybe you consider that to be substantial math, but I don’t really (and I am most certainly not a math person!) Preparing for a graduate program in economics is a completely different animal than completing an undergraduate program, as it should be.</p>
