benefit you as you prepare for

go for Quantitative. Economics is ultimately about numbers. The only non-quantitative thing in Econ is History (of Thought or Institutions) and maybe Behavioral. Make sure quantitative Econ has such topics as Micro (consumer and producer theory, General equilibrium, games), Macro (dynamic model, both capital and monetary models) and Econometric/Statistics (OLS Regressions, panels, systems of equations, binary choice) |

If you understand the models, you should be okay. Look for figures of the models and read the captions. If you don't quite understand it still, then find the part in the text that describes that particular example. Also, make sure you understand all the bolded terms because certain terms will be recurring concepts throughout the course (i.e. supply, demand, elasticity, market, industry, etc) |
