Suitable Quant Trading path for an Australian Student.
Greetings to members of WSO,
I am currently entering my final year at highschool and would highly value your opinions on my following inquiries. Aware of the low selection rate on becoming a quant trader, I am currently seeking a suitable + safe path(degree to fall back on in the case that I fail the interviews on becoming a quant trader) on entering this occupation through the following degrees provided:
~ Advanced Mathematics + Engineering ~ Advanced Mathematics + Computer Science ~ Data Science + Specialisation on Quantitative Data Science
If possible, are there any books that you would recommend for prep? I am currently using Anki to reinforce apply what I have learnt toward my future projects/goals!
I have currently completed and achieved an average of 50 on Zetamac’s default settings : ~ Udemy’s Python ~ Udemy’s Machine Learning ~ Udemy’s Artificial Neural Networks ~ No Bullshit Guide to Linear Algebra by Ivan Savov ~ Highschool level of ODE, PDE and Combinatorics
● Currently reading option volatility and pricing strategies by Sheldon Natenberg
If you've made it this far, I would like to thank you for taking your time out of your day and wish you a New Year of health and success!
For additional context: I am from Australia , NSW. ( it would be a pleasure to further chat to any Australians viewing this :D)
Optiver Wannabe, pure crickets, that's where I come in. Any of these useful?
More suggestions...
Fingers crossed that one of those helps you.
Personally, I’d say Advanced Mathematics + Comp Sci would be your best bet. Good luck mate.
