Considering how broad the field of economics is, it can be difficult for young economists to figure out how to learn, what to learn, whom to learn from, and more. 

Having a mentor who guides you is always extremely helpful. Hence, in this episode, we bring to you wisdom from not one, not two, but three mentors: Benjamin Hoffner-Brodsky, Gaurang Goel, and Tarun Timalsina, three upperclassmen studying economics at Harvard College.

We discuss a variety of topics from their experiences at Harvard, the importance of behavioral and political economics, future of India's economy, open-source learning, and their advice for young budding economists!
