Should I study Business Administration or Economics in college?
I want to skip the BB IB part and jump straight into PE after completing my undergraduate studies - preferably into BX Analyst program or something similar. I may later on work in HF industry but not too sure of that, yet.
The curriculum of the BA seems very diverse and interesting but doesn't include a lot of math and macro/micro. And the curriculum of the economics gives a lot of options to choose from but since I hate complex math I'm not too sure about it. Nevertheless, I want to study the one that will benefit me the most in my career.
I will also share the curriculums here :
