Hey guys, I'm planning on early decisioning to a Semi-Target liberal arts college think (Middlebury/Bowdoin) and was wondering if investment banks would care if I majored in International Politics & Economics(not dual degree it's a mixed major) over Economics + some quantitative minor like Computer Science.

At a NESCAC, they won't care. Economics is good enough, don't tank your GPA with something hard like math or physics.
Thanks for replying! So do you think I can major in international politics & economics or should I just major in straight economics? I believe I would find international politics & economics more interesting.
