Surely you won't get onto an Economics degree course if you haven't already studied economics in high school? I'm from the UK and there you can study Economics from 15.

Also, surely the interview will ask you about your background knowledge of economics, and if you didn't know who Keynes was you're unlikely to get an offer.
