Quick opinion - help me decide a minor

I'll make it short and sweet. Currently an Econ and Data Science major. Hope to work in consulting or venture capital. I am between fintech, supply chain, math, finance, or accounting. More than happy to hear all feedback and appreciate any input. Thank you

Ditto on accounting. I see you're going to Northeastern, please make sure to take advantage of the co-op program.

I thought the co-op program was mandatory?

Might be. I'm familiar with other co-op schools where it's optional. I highly recommend it. Know quite a few who've gone to these schools and have been able to avoid the dreaded dead-end entry level job after college by getting ~1-2 years of experience through quality co-ops.

Sometimes I wish I went to one of those type of schools. I ended up in a dead-end job for awhile after college (mostly due to my decision to just focus on academics and not so much recruiting, backfired on me).
