Students choose to major in economics for two strong reasons.
They are interested in gaining a deeper understanding of economic phenomena and they enjoy the rigorous reasoning. A weak reason for majoring in economics is for the sake of career. Career prospects are brighter with academic success. Success is more likely when a student chooses a major where the subject matter is interesting and the required modes of thought match one's abilities. Success is more important than field.
