<p>Im starting my education at a community college and am going to transfer to an average university for my undergraduate studies. If I maintain a good GPA will i be able to get into a top 20 MSF or MFE program? I eventually plan on getting my MBA from a top 20. I want to work in hedge funds thats why going to a top school is vital. After i get my MFE or MSF I plan on going into proprietary trading, im already networking with some firms. What would be better for me though an MFE or MSF? For my undergrad im double majoring in math/economics or finance/economics. Im probably going to minor in computer science. Or should i Major in Comp Sci? I am also planning on getting some letters of recommendations from professors and joining clubs related to my field. Then I will score high on my GMAT and have work experience and should be able to get into a top 20 MBA program right? is my plan good? thinking I have my GED and am trying to get to the top.</p>

<p>Easier said than done, kid-o. In theory, it’s a good plan. But it sounds like you still have four years of tough exams and a recession-era job search between you and that goal, --not to mention all the real-life and social stuff that will happen in the coming years as well.</p>
<p>I don’t think finance is the right degree. It could work, but many finance majors get shafted in this recession, especially coming from average schools. Accounting is a tougher major and a safer bet. Computer science is also a great choice, MBA programs love to see it and it’s in huge demand.</p>
<p>Well, it’s good to have a goal in mind. Good luck with it!</p>
<p>no, you cant do that…</p>
