Philosophy major at Brown

Hey all, choosing my major right now at Brown and wondering how disadvantaged I’d be in getting a job in finance if I do a logic heavy phil degree with our equivalent of a finance certificate (entrepreneurship but it’s all investment classes). I’m doing a VC internship this summer and interned in PE last summer so hoping I can use my experience to get a good internship next summer.
