<p>Hey guys, I am going to be a senior next year, and will almost 100% be applying to Cornell ED.
Now, I want to work in business, however, I want to study a more liberal-arts type education in college, and then grad school maybe get an MBA or something like that, but definitely NO AEM for me.
My 3 ideas right now are:
PAM (economics concentration) at College HumEc
ORIE - College engineering
Economics / Math Double major at CAS
Now what I am considering for choosing a major of these (I have a few months I know) are a few things: (I know they are different programs, but they all have things that I like)
Cost: I know as an NYS resident, PAM is the best option pricewise.
Difficulty to enter - as a male with a 1480/1600 (790 M), pretty good ECs, hopefully good essays, I am wondering if any of these would be easier or harder to get into (not a URM).
Workload/Difficulty - Strangely, I want a difficult major, just because I really do love challenges. The more difficult the better, and I do love math, have some Math ECs so yeah.
Job Placement - Which one has the best job placement in business? Are they all good?
So basically I am a really math/history oriented student, I want to study economics and math definitely (preferably heavy on the math also), but I am not sure from which angle. I think PAM is off the list, but someone could convince me otherwise. ORIE looks interesting other than the studying physics/biology because I plain up dislike science. I kinda want to study economics from a mathematical point of view.
I understand these are some key assumptions that I made like I would actually get in, but thanks for reading!</p>
