Do Banks Look at What Courses You Took

I am wondering if I should take a course in finance, which would look good on a transcript for banks, showing them I am interested in finance, etc. However, it would be better for me if I fulfilled a requirement to graduate by taking a history class. I would rather do the latter, but would do the former if the banks look at transcripts. However, I can't find the answer to the question. Are they going to look at what courses I have taken or not?

 

The MM bank I worked at always requested transcripts. The "difficulty" of classes you took were taken into consideration, as were the extent to which you took finance / accounting.

There are times that they don't regard your course, however most of them requires a graduate from finance course coz it is much better for those graduate to understand the industry and the process of business.
