degree title confusion

I know I'm probably gonna get ripped to shreds for this, but my school Non Target, Private, with a heavy access to the yellow ribbon program, calls its degree: Bachelor of Science in Commerce

now I am majoring in finance and have completed the above commerce curriculum and have been to the career center where they have told me to address it as: Bachelor of Science in Commerce in Finance however, after talking to a couple sources they said it sounded "fucking retarded".. so after scanning through the resume review section I have seen a few people call it Bachelor of Science in Commerce (Finance) or Bachelor of Science in Commerce-Major in Finance

which one looks the most professional is my real question. thanks guys, ~fight~

I'm not a resume expert or anything but I would say the first one looks better. But really as long as they get the information than that's all that matters.

I went to a retarded nontarget too, and they can go fuck themselves. As long as you're not distorting the truth, put something that sounds better, because "Bachelor of Science in Commerce in Finance" does sound "fucking retarded." I'd pick the second option but put spaces around the dash IMO.
