You have to read before you attend class to understand what's going on. Please practise a lot too it helps. You're gonna find it hard to find videos on UA-cam to help you. So try and go through as many texts you have access to.
Some other reasons I wouldn’t: - not as relevant to finance as people think. Maybe bits of macro are (mostly to central banking) but if you want to go into finance an A&F degree would give you more knowledge. - lots of maths to learn to actually do economics, you need to fit in a lot of extra maths if you want to study it at a higher level past undergraduate. - it doesn’t equip you with a lot of technical skills relevant to the job market. Other than econometrics where you might learn stata or R there is usually little to no options on learning things like sql, python etc. which a lot of jobs/ research requires
As someone who is just about to finish my final year doing Economics, you’re absolutely right. I feel like most of the stuff I’ve learnt isn’t going to be particularly useful in the real world.
@@prashil1512 honestly I absolutely hated it. Wish I had decided to do computer science or maths. Sorry I couldn't give you a more positive answer, you may enjoy it of course but personally I regret choosing econ.
Totally agree w/ everything you said, particularly about influencing your thought process and speech. Really appreciate the last piece of feedback, especially when you're innately a worry-wort.
Would you consider doing a part three of five ways you’d improve economics degrees? Where you’d come up with solutions for say the limited contact time or how to make it more appealing to finance companies?
2번이랑 4번은 진짜 공감... 뭐 여타 사회과학 분과가 다 그렇긴 하지만 아무리 교과서를 읽고 토론을 해도 공허하게 외치고 있다는 느낌뿐ㅎㅎ; 그런데 이런 생각이 든 건 5번 때문일지도.. 내가 경제를 전공하지 않았다면 효율성이나 수학적 사고에 길들여지지 않았을 거고, 언제까지나 공상과 이율배반 속에서 헤엄치고 있었을 수도 있겠다. 경제를 배움으로써 뒤늦게나마 현실을 직시하게 되어서 다행이다. 2021년 10월 12일 오후 9시 48분.
Just finished 1st year of my economics degree in ireland. In my uni, masters (not undergrad)economics students go on a trip to the IMF, ECB, European Commission etc. As well as irish trips to the central bank of ireland and so on, so there are opportunities for trips if your a economics students, although most don't.
ı'll study economics in France, your videos helps me a lot about understand what am ı gonna learn and what are the difficulties that ı ll have. thanks a lot! :)

I personally love economics, but my university doesn't offers economics degree so I am doing Business degree with specialization in Banking and Finance.
Not only that Most of degrees can be studied at home with so much ease and comfort and much cheaper too Except for the degrees that need practical teaching like medicine and engineering maybe .. but universities today should really change at least the mindset .. they are only trading institutions.. I don’t know when this will change and we are now in 2024
Can you do five reasons why should study economics because in I’m year 11 and I’m planning to do a major in economics because I’ve always been interested in economics ever since I was 12
I think it’s good to be non biased even if you like something. I have been going for 11 years so I have been able to let some of the freshmen know courses to take that were worth it and some weren’t.
An economics degree is best applied through 'OPERATIONS' no matter it is in being the actual business operator or the operations manager in almost any field of industry.
I took one class in economics and sad to say the professor ruined the experience. But I still think economics is super important to study! Plenty of resources online to self-study about it :)
Thanks for the videos. In regards to when you mentioned the Physics and Mathematics graduates being preferred over Economics graduates, what is your opinion on a dual Economics and Mathematics degree? I'm a mature student, currently studying at the Open University, and I'm kind of torn between studying Economics and Mathematical Sciences, or Mathematics and Statistics. Do you have any advice on what you think would lay a better foundation for career prospects? Again, thanks for the videos :) Best wishes, Michael
Hey Dylan. This video was pretty insightful. I’m going into my third year of economics and I’ve thought of some of these points. I wanna know tho, overall how do you feel about Econ and have you got a general plan on what you want career wise?
studying economics at university should have only 1 objective: to become a superior researcher. That is possible only unver supervision. That is why try to write paper per subject. This is the practical in economics degree. LEARN R, Pytho, Econometrics and Simulations then make a judgement.
I think thats because Economics itself is a very broad discipline, hence the application is also too broad to be of any use by itself. Best thing to do with an Econs degree is to have a specialization/minor/specialized degree. Best minor to do with econs would probably be Computer Science in today’s complicated financial systems. Specialized degrees like financial economics, MORSE, Econometrics, etc etc.
@@Taab1578 It's way too theoretical to be practical. People who wants to go into the banking and finance industry would be better off studying accounting & finance or business degrees. Economics is for the academics.
hey thanks for making this. how much maths was in you course - was it really hard maths? I heard lots of places like lse, ucl have really maths-based courses
I’m the person who’d count the price per pill while buying a simple paracetamol at drugstore.....I think I made right decision by enrolling at economics degree
@Blue Clouds for my degree you needed an A in A level maths, so if you’re not doing A level maths I wouldn’t recommend it. My friend doing the same course as me really struggled with the maths heavy modules so he switched to business economics at the end of the first year.
People who study physics and mathematics study the hard stuff, and that's why their brains become more robust. Economics has little intellectual substance, you can figure things out on your own. Tell me...can you figure out what Albert Einstein figured out and eventually proved ... in both the Special and General Theories of Relativity?
Don’t bother getting your degree in economics. I did 25 years ago. I’ve never used it once after college. May as well saved my time and money and gone into a blur collar job instead. It’s useless.

@@SomeLad12 how was your experience studying econ, I'm currently confused on what to study but I'm learning towards econ

Do a "what my economics professors think of me video" where you get your ex professors to leave a word about you XD

I’m jealous! That sounds so good
Which uni did you study at? I’m trying to decide in Ireland rn
Do 5 reasons u should, because I really enjoyed A level economics and was going to do it for A level, I understand it gets more mathsy haha.
ı'll study economics in France, your videos helps me a lot about understand what am ı gonna learn and what are the difficulties that ı ll have. thanks a lot! :)

starting college in september. planning to study economics, maths and business for A level. any things i should know for economics a level?

So you dont need math for economics?
Do i have to pick math for a level to study economics?
Plzz answer thx
Literally just watch econplusdal and you will be fine.

Thanks! Overall I love it great degree! New video soon!
Make a video discussing why you would have done a computer science degree, if you could go back in time...
Good idea!
What is your advice for those whom, wish to study economy as a hobby. What books, tools, app, any suggestions, thank you.
What about myself who is going from BS Physics to MS Applied Financial Economics?
i major in econ now. And honestly its so true about vocabulary, actions, and critical thinking changing. But it has make me more aware of things

With an economics degree, they teach you just enough to make it hard but not enough to make it useful 😆
Why’s it not useful ?
Bahahahah

Random question bro but where's your pendant from?

One question, do you have to be good at maths to study economics?
no you dont have to be but if your doing a bsc youll have to learn to be good at it for sure

i love economics
I'm a mech engineering student. I took a Microeconomics class and the professor was boring af.
The last one is why i should study economics😂😂😂.
How good does your maths level need to be do well? I am good at statistics and algebra but don't know much calculus at this point.
