bweissheimer Posted August 24, 2012 Report Share Posted August 24, 2012 Hey guys,I always knew that I wanted to include economics in my university degree but studying just economics was a bit too theoretical (besides the fact that I don't do Maths HL and wouldn't get into most of the curses) I looked a bit around and found the management course offered by some great universities (LSE, Warwick, etc.) so has anyone some experience with that course and knows what it all involves? I read the course content on the homepage of some universities but couldn't get much out of it. Thanks Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Economist Posted August 24, 2012 Report Share Posted August 24, 2012 I'm not doing Management but since you say you always knew you wanted Economics in your degree, why not consider the Economics & Management course at Oxford? The entry requirements are almost the same. LSE and Warwick ask for a 38 overall (not sure for any subject-specific requirements) and Oxford asks for a 38-40.By the way, Economics is really not theoretical. It's heavily math-based. Unless you do a Bachelor of Arts in Economics. Then yes, the structure is more theoretical and essay based. Most top universities offer a Bachelor of Science in Economics though.Edit: Just checked and LSE asks for a 37 and Warwick for a 38. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks in advance. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bweissheimer Posted August 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 Well it depends obviously on your grades and on your Personal Statement but you have a chance with Maths SL...I'll probably put it down as one of my options as well Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
