My Finance Degree in 9 Minutes

In this video I'll be walking you through all the classes I took as a finance major at the University of Connecticut and pointing out which classes were particularly useful for me thus far in my career.

If you have any more questions, I would be happy to answer them so leave them down in the comments!

The fact you can do an internship and your full classes is impressive to me. I could barely handle classes and making sure my grades were good.

I graduated with my finance degree in May and I don’t regret it but a lot of the concepts I learned are catered to Asset management/ IB / Private equity but ig I found out I don’t want to go in either of these industries so kinda find a lot of what I learned useless. I don’t regret my major but if I could do it over I’d rather get an accounting degree!

Thank you a lot. I am 10th student prelearning for Finance as I know this is a essential skill in daily life and found in your video some skills that I need to acquire that if not for it, I wouldn't have known the direction. Simply speaking, thank you very much!

Man college apps are due soon and finance degree sounds fun, but Im just learning about it. Hopefully I can get into a solid college with this major.

Financial derivatives class was pretty difficult

Hi! Going into finance, starting my freshman year in under 3 weeks. I struggle with math a lot, but I never failed any courses in high school despite that. I got around a C- in precalc (68% as we don’t use letter grades where I live), do you think I can still be successful in this major? I’m a super dedicated student so my math issues are something deeper than slacking off, and besides math I am an A student.

Awesome video, I’d love to see a ‘Deep Dive’ video on some more advanced financial topics and tasks that you specifically worked on.

Can i do an accounting and finance degree with a macbook or are the excel limitations a real problem ?

[shavonnecampbell]

is it that you have a Bachelor of Science in Finance or Bachelor of Business Administration in Finance?

[Prophesite]

The colleges have been real quiet after this one. 👀👀👀

Hi I’m a 30 yr old mom looking to go back to school now my kids are bigger. Any advice

Kinda of a late comment but I’m debating on going into finance because I love stocks and ETFs and real estate investing. But not a huge math fan. Would you still say it’s a good idea to go into finance and how easy is it to learn the math

Just finished my college on Finance degree from New York, I’ve no internship or any experience so what do you suggest me to start with for career job related to my degree?

[mikefieselman]

im graduating with a bba in finance, and realized that I only need 4 more classes for an ecnonmics degree as well. From looking at the job market requirements, doesn't seem like having a double major in economics would really be worth the time compared to say an internship. Would you agree?

Math has been the main subject that i’ve been talented in all my life, and finance seems to be the major that involves math and gets paid high. I honestly have no idea about finance, which is why i’m watching your videos. If i’m good with numbers, do you think finance is the right major for me? It’s hard to find a high paying career with math, so finance seems to be my way to go. Any thoughts? I’m going to be a senior next year and i’m going to start applying to colleges around the end of summer. So after you explain your thoughts, can you also recommend me some universities that are very good for finance? Thanks!

I had a desk in the corner of the accountant's office, which the CEO also worked in, best
