Does major really matter?
I’m currently choosing between majoring in econ or finance right now and I’m wondering how much it really actually matters for my career what I choose. I see people from Yale on LinkedIn who studied History and have BX and D1. Does this mean all advantages from choosing the most “desirable” major from the eyes of a firm can be overcome by better interview prep? I don’t know what to think because my intuition would say the more rigorous majors would have better placements, but then I see History majors crushing it beyond what I would even consider possible for most finance majors. Any insight is much appreciated.
Finance just makes it easier when you’re doing interview prep. Like you already know most of the concepts that you will be questioned on.
