Do Math or CS. Just know ur still gonna have to learn all of the content and technicals for IB (which won’t be at all covered in your coursework), so it may make it extra challenging and time consuming to learn everything. I recommend still taking a basic financial accounting class and general finance class as electives if you can just to get a baseline. Math/CS are also good majors for quant or trading if you decide to shoot for those as well
