Hi,
To become an Economist you need to specialise in Economics. Economists study and analyze the relationship between supply and demand of goods and services and how they are produced, distributed and consumed. They provide information to management that affects decisions on marketing and pricing of products, economic forecasts, and the effect of government policies on business. Economists also help in solving problems like unfair wages, rapid population growth, people migration to city centers, high crime incidence, and loss of human resources due to overseas migration.
Post class 10, take up Economics and Mathematics as your core subjects, further on do a bachelors in Economics from a very good institute followed by a Postgraduate and a doctrate degree in Economics or related field.
Hope this helps. All the best.
