what should my major be?
I am going onto sophomore and need to decide my major. I am primarily interested in market making and S&T.
Want to be a trader and my options are
computer science + finance single major
(it is called computing & financial management)
or
Math majors (statistics,applied math, etc) + computer science minor
cfm kids tend to lean towards more technical jobs like electronic market making and algo trading
a few stat majors go work for prop firms (with less quant) I think.
The thing is I do not know what I am truly interested and what the best fit is for me.
any recommendations or
thoughts?
I would definitely lean toward finance + computer science. It should look great to a broad set of firms/jobs. Also if you can handle the course load try to toss in a stat minor because trading/HF interviews tend to have a fair amount of stat brain teasers.
In whatever major you choose do not fall below a 3.5 GPA.
