We all have one thing in common - we study econometrics. However, there are many different types of econometricians among us. Take this quiz to see which type of econometrician you are!

What Type Of Econometrician Are You?

What's your favourite place at uni to order food?

What's your favourite social media outlet?

What's your favourite way to spend free time?

Favourite show to binge watch before exams

You dream in regressions, you speak in Java, and read the Heijbel every night. The UB employees know your first, middle and last names, and you even have the key to open the door at 8am. You will probably do the econometrics research major and will probably end up working at Econometric Institute doing research.

The Real Econometrician

You didn't know what you wanted to do when you were in high school, but you knew you liked both sciences and economics. You chose the middle way which was econometrics and ended up not hating it, because your fellow students aren't as weird as you thought and you're actually passing. You will probably major in quantitative marketing and end up working at a medium data consultancy firm designing the newest Bonuskaart.

The I-Don’t-Know-How-I-Got-Here Econometrician

You actually don't like math, but you were good at it in high school, you just started econometrics to jump into a good job. You already have connections at BCG and would kill to work there. You apply the STARR-method to everything you do. You probably are a member at some fraternity. You do econometrics to show people you're smart, but you know you'll never actually use it in your future job. You will probably do a master at RSM.

The Wannabe Consultant

You dream of becoming an investor predicting stock prices, though everyone knows those models never work anyway (but good luck nonetheless). You are part of B&R Beurs with your other finance friends and claim to outperform the market, though we all know you just used 1/N. You will probably major in quantitative finance and will probably end up working as an investment banker.

The Classic Finance Student

You dream in simplex method, and are always trying to solve the P vs NP problem. You can program like none other. You know logistics is the hardest major and it doesn't pay well, but will choose it regardless, because you actually find it fun. You will probably end up working at Ortec or NS.

The Logistician

You played every level of the university. You do BSc^2 and philosophy, you are a TA, did a board year, you have a part time job and your summers are spent doing internships abroad. It doesn't matter what you major in, because you're most probably gonna get a good job considering all your extra-curricular activities. You are almost certainly that 1 out of 3rd person to become a millionaire and you know it.
