I want to study economics so bad, but I am afraid I wont do well... I am starting college next semester and I will be on calculus. Not so sure... help???

I'd like to know how much math is required from math itself and math on econ classes and all. Let me knowww! :)
 
It will depend on some extent on your major and what papers you are required to take, but there will be a bit of maths to do, including calculus and algebra. I am doing a business degree with an economics major, and included a "Maths for Business" paper which has really helped.

While being confident with maths will be an advantage, economics is about a lot more than just maths. I guess you need to ask yourself why you want to study economics in the first place, and where you want that BS or BA to take you.
