Should I change my major from finance to math if I love both subjects? Why or why not?
Title. I love both math and finance, not sure what to do. I always thought finance was the no brainer, and even if I change my major to math I'd still want to work in finance, I took some math classes (statistics and business calc which is calc 1 pretty much) and loved them. Any advice/tips on how to approach this would be greatly appreciated, pros/cons etc.
Some context: I double majored in math and econ in undergrad
From your post it seems like you've only skimmed the surface of the types of classes that a math major would take. The classes you've taken: "statistics and business calc" are more computational/"number-crunching" type of math where you can follow set steps and arrive to an answer (this is a very crude definition). However, as you progress into higher levels of math classes, it becomes less so "number-crunching" and more so logic-based and abstract.
My advice: you should take an introductory proof-based class. That type of class should give you a taste of what upper-level math classes will look like and give you a better view of whether or not you'd truly enjoy studying math. IMO it's too early to decide on whether or not you should major in math based on the classes you've taken.
