There\u2019s a very high pace, so you need to be ready to meet deadline after deadline for assignments and exams.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Brush up on the basics<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The fast pace of learning means that keeping up with the coursework can be challenging if you don\u2019t have a good mathematical or economic grounding.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Diego advises prospective students to study up on basic mathematical economics before their program begins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIf you come from a mathematical or very analytical background, I think you\u2019re sorted.

It\u2019s very dynamic and very international.
