The EE econ or Business

hi
i need some help on choosing my subject for EE, i am currently conflicted between economics and business management. the thing is i have interest in both subjects and i cant decide.
sometimes i feel like economics have a lot of topics to do my research work on and sometimes i feel like business have great marketing strategies to do my research on. but i am a little conflicted because what if i chose business and lack of resources in the midst..
so please give some suggestions on which subject i could get my work done

Can I check what is an EE? This is a UK website, so we normally cater more to students who study in the UK. EE is not a UK qualification or an international qualification that I recognise. Can you elaborate so we can see how we can help?

sure,
EE is the short form of extended essay in the IB DP curriculum. it is an independent research work done by the student which consists of 4000 words in an essay form. we basically choose a subject in our DP and find a topic , create a narrower research question in that and answer our question in 4000 words.

I would say economics for sure then.

If you want to do a business related research topic, your best bet is to look for stuff on Yahoo Finance for a financial topic. For marketing, you would have to run around doing surveys and polls, which can be time consuming and require a lot of effort.

Whilst I can probably recommend a bunch of things for market research using digital marketing, I am not sure how well received it would be to your IB assessors. These recommendations would incur specific costs, and if you're younger than 18 you might come across a few legal problems.
