Economics at La Trobe?

I've been to the open day and the Bachelor of Economics really appeals to me. I'll be in year 12 for 2014, so I still have awhile to decide preferences. Is anybody familiar with this course?? Is it good? Thank you!

My friend is doing that course (finished second year), he says it's good; easy to manage and it "can't crush people's souls", definitely worth doing.

I did a macroeconomics subject in my first year. The subject was fantastic and the department was well organised.

They also had very professional tutors.
