Economics and Maths: third-year Business track

In the third Bachaloria year, the Business track's subjects are advanced Economics and Maths, each out of 100. What "advanced" means, and how to prepare while you are still in the second year.

The short answer

A Business student studies only two subjects in the total in the third Bachaloria year: advanced Economics and Maths. Each is out of 100, making 200 of the 600 marks, and they are the whole of the third year's total.

What does "advanced" mean?

The ministry describes third-year study as more advanced and specialised, with deeper topics. It does not repeat the basics; it builds on them. That makes sense: these subjects prepare you for the faculties the track leads to: Commerce, Economics and Political Science, Business Administration and Law.

When?

  • The first Bachaloria cohort reaches the third year in 2027/28.
  • Exams: June (first sitting) and August (second), and the best counts.
  • The detailed third-year curricula are announced by the ministry. We will write about them as soon as they are out.

How to prepare while you are in the second year

  • Economics and Maths are not in the second year on the Business track (the second year has Accounting or Business Administration).
  • Financial Culture in the second year (an activity) is close to Economics: saving, investing and markets. Make use of it. Financial Culture
  • Keep your Maths going: second-year Maths on GoBachaloria is open to anyone, and the first five videos are free. Maths in the Bachaloria
  • Follow economic news in a simple way: inflation, prices, the exchange rate. You will understand the subject faster.
