or
Do I get a finance degree with a Biology major as well?

>getting into Investment banking purely off of Degree?
You don't. No one gets an offer purely off of degree. If you're not at a top target, your major does matter more though.
so which major would be best?
Go to a target, most people going into banking are econ with a scattering of math, cs, political science, etc.
The only time my major (non-econ/finance) really helped was (a) whenever I was interviewing with someone who shared my major or (b) when the interviewer asked why I studied what I did (and I was able to give a good answer). If you're at a target / semi-target, major in whatever you'll do well in; work experience / gpa / etc. will trump major.
