Any recommendations?

Hey guys,

I'm a sophomore in college majoring in finance. Besides getting good grades, landing internships, and networking your ass off, do you guys have any recommendations for "supplemental learning material" that could would benefit me? I'm talking like great books, those live webcast seminars on markets??. shit like that. I'm open to anything. I want to know as much as I can as possible when its time for me to start looking for a full time position as an analyst.

also any thoughts on double majoring in finance and accounting?

Thanks guys!

I think one of the best things you can do is find a really good finance group or club at your school. Find some peers who are also set on IBD and go through the various books, webcasts, etc together. It'll be more fun and you'll get more out of it.

As for the actual materials, use the search bro there's already threads on books and how effective various materials are.
