WTF?! Economics?!

Why did I choose Economics as my major, you may ask? Well, quite simply - I enjoy it. Many times when I tell people this, they look at me as if I just told a bad dead baby joke...but I really do enjoy Economics. I find the interactions of consumers and producers in markets with concern to Supply and Demand and other external issues fascinating.

Not only that but I plan on attend Law School in the near future, and a 1996 Wall Street Journal Study shows that of the undergraduate degrees with the highest LSAT scores were graduates of Economics. I believe this is because Economics teaches us to treat each situation logically and abstractly - which is exactly what the Law School Admissions Test is - a series of logic problems.

THAT, my friend, is why I chose Economics as my major.
