I would not go into that extreme because i always found it amazaing how graduates from Delhi School of Economics (who's graduates and former faculties include famous economists like Kaushik Basu, Amartya Sen, Jagadish Bhagwati, Manamohan Singh, among countless others) gets admission into prestigious program like harvard, yale, princeton, cornell, and mit..
i know the educational system in india, which is similar to my country, wher students have no option of choosing classes because its fixed by college..you have to take what they offer each semester and you cannot pick and choose, so even if you wanted to take math there will be no classes...beside that there is not much empahsis in math in you undergrad or graduate economics degree..
despite these facts, the graduates from Delhi School of Economics have been regularly getting admission into top schools and, despite their lack fo math background, doing very very well..
