High schooler who wants to become a portfolio manager (SERIOUS)
I (16M) dream to become a portfolio manager for either a hedge fund or in asset management. I’m currently entering grade 12 and theres no chance I will be able to get into an Ivy League. What should I study in university? I was thinking about doing a double major in Econ and Stats, or doing a Business program. Also, should I try getting an internship right now? Overall, I’m just curious as to what I should be doing to secure such a position.
Go to the best school you can and get the best internship you can.
Business majors are for back office roles. Study CS/DS/Stats/EE/Math if you want a front office job.
What a fucking hopelessly incorrect piece of information
Please do tell us more intern. Don’t you have studying or trade confirmations to do?
Outdated title dipshit and clearly you need to go study LinkedIn for what backgrounds people in the industry actually have
