Yes, you'll find Economics subjects a bit different in the Commerce stream. Though the core concepts are the same, you'll find more statistical methods, supply and demand, inflation, national income, market structures, etc., topics. In the Arts, you'll find economic development, international trade, or public policy types topics.

Why not! In simple words, Economics is the study of humans in the regular business of life. It analyzes how they get their income and how they use it. That's why, on one side, it's the study of wealth and on the other, it's a part of the study of man.
It is a part of the Social Science where we study about the production, distribution, and consumption of resources in the society.

If you're dreaming Econ dreams, hit up Delhi's big leagues: St. Stephen's, SRCC, LSR, Miranda, Hansraj, Ramjas, and of course, Delhi School of Economics. They're CUET-based mostly, with interviews sprinkled in for extra spice. These places are elite, the vibe is smart AF, and the competition? Ruthless. So prep like your future salary depends on it—because, well. it kinda does.

Apps usually drop in March, and April 18 was the last date in 2025. Counseling came in June. IPU doesn't send “hey bestie, apply now” texts — so if you miss it, it's on you. Set a reminder, check their site weekly, and don't procrastinate unless you wanna stress-eat Maggi at midnight over a missed deadline.
