CMU Student - Math Major

Hey everybody,

Im going to be an incoming applied math major at cmu and am wondering if I should take on any extra fianance/econ minor(s) or electives. I know that CMU is less of a target for traditional banking so does anyone have any extra tips that may help a lesser target.
