<p>"If you get high GPA in Math/Finance, you can get into basically any field from a finance job to a quant job to a actuary.......... the possibilities are broad. Can't help w/ salary as I'm not familiar with canada's graduate market."</p>
<p>Thanks, good to hear. I'm not exactly sure what area of finance I'd like to enter, as I haven't researched that much. Does it help if I say that I want to work in Europe or the USA? I've heard a lot about Investment Banking, Management Consulting, etc., but I'm not about to tell you that I'm interested in either of those fields, considering my very limited knowledge. I do know about the career of an actuary though, and that doesn't seem like it is for me. I'm going to look into investing and finance related jobs.</p>
<p>"A 3.8 is good. Just b/c you want an MBA from an elite school doesn't mean you can't do so with an engineering undergrade degree. In fact, that's quite common. Only switch if you don't like engineering, b/c your GPA shows you are good enough for grad school."</p>
<p>Thanks. I actually loathe engineering, to be honest. I don't mind my math/physics courses, but the actual engineering courses (mechanics, thermodynamics, etc.) I can't stand. I find it hard to pay attention in lecture, and actually end up skipping many lectures because of this. I'll stay in engineering if it will benefit my career, but I don't enjoy it.</p>
<p>Another question that I have is, what is better, a BSc. in mathematics and finance, or a BComm. (Canada's version of a BBA) in Finance, for my goals?</p>
<p>Cheers,
