Sex, money and economics

Economics is one of the most competitive degrees being studied at university along with: Law, business and management studies, art and IT and computer science, this may be the reason why in a recent survey that economics students have recently had the highest average of sexual partners since starting college!

The survey done by http://www.studentbeans.com/ found that on average students studying economics had an average of 4.88 sexual partners, this may be due to some form of self-induced panic caused by the news of slow growth and a bleak future for the UK's economy, or maybe studying economics just exudes an aura of sex appeal.

BBC's economics editor, Stephanie Flanders has allegedly had a relationship with Labour leader Ed Miliband as well as Ed Balls, the shadow chancellor.

Next on the list were:
Community care and counselling- (4.7 partners)
Marketing- (4.57 partners)
Leisure, hospitality, tourism and retail- (4.56 partners)
Agriculture- (4.44 partners)

Now comes the more 'innocent' subjects:
Theologians-(2.13 partners)
Environmental science-(1.71 partners)

Economics, an intellectually and physically stimulating subject by all accounts.
