      @@luizadanson2894 in my opinion its the most practical study you can do in college & feel as though it translates to the real world, you also get the necessary skills & way of thinking for almost all business subj (acc, finance, bm) & its concepts I learned in econ that i use in every second of every day such as opportunity cost that make me think a bit harder or my real life decisions. Overall great theoretical knowledge that translates to the practical world

    Of course it shouldn't affect me, I really don't like how an economics degree is looked down upon as if it is easy to obtain. If you go to a reputable university, it is quantitive and rigorous, yet everyone is seemingly more impressed by a finance degree requiring one level of calculus (or none).

    Im currently a postgraduate taught student in MSc Economics and Econometrics. Do you think i could go forward with Actuary or Investment Banking analyst. These are 2 of the priority choices I have, but other than that i also plan to apply for business analyst and marketing analyst roles. Im just wondering if i could smoothly transition to either of the first two careers, because i would like to do it, but also wouldn't want to jump into something entirely new. I have knowledge on basic R programming (from undergrad), which im taking a certification currently for (to advance it), we have STATA as well as time series. Would these skills be sufficient?

    Hi Dr. A! Econ major here. I am planning on getting my masters. I have a few video ideas for you that is super helpful for people in my position (I haven't seen these on your channel). I know that this is very job-specific, but it would be really cool if you could do a video on different credentials econ majors get to be more specialized.
    Additionally, I am kinda worried about letters of rec. Maybe you could talk about that a little bit too, but idk if there is much to talk about there.
    Thanks !!
