This still doesn’t specify the important thing; strategy… a L/S strategy requires different skillset to a rates RV strategy or a commodity/energy strategy.

 

It doesn't matter, your school and ability to break into banking will matter more. CAP/P72 academy ideally.

No one cares about your major, and no major will be helpful. Get to modeling stocks and figuring out what the drivers are.
