What is Finance is all about?

<p>Im a new student to college, I like math and art,
Im thinking about studying Finance,
but I dont really understand what finance is about,
If Finance is about mostly Math or English?</p>

<p>is there any good website for me to find out my major?</p>

<p>Please give me tips on how to pick a good major for myself,</p>

<p>Thank you very much,</p>

<p>…is about the management of money or funds. it’s just as simple as that…</p>

<p>I like math, I have no prople solving math proplems
but I have problems with English, my communication skill is bad</p>

<p>Is it a bad idea to go into Finance?</p>

<p>I like the College Board’s site about different majors and careers ([Majors</a> and Careers Central](<a href=“College Board - SAT, AP, College Search and Admission Tools”>College Board - SAT, AP, College Search and Admission Tools)), and I guess you could google some tests that tell you what field would be good for your interests, but I’m not sure of any good ones.
You could go to the different websites for each of Berkeley’s Colleges (Letters and Science, Engineering, Business, Chemistry, etc.) and look at each major and kind of just eliminate the ones you don’t feel are right. If you have it eliminated to a nice amount, you can explore from there or take intro courses to the ones you’d like to know more about.</p>

<p>It’s important to consider if you want to go to graduate school, if money from this degree is going to be very important, if it’s something you really enjoy doing, if it’s something about which you take pleasure learning, etc. I’ve heard it’s common for people to change their majors around once they’re in college, so I don’t think you should feel completely obligated to choose a major right now. I mean, some majors take more time to do, I guess (like Engineering), but make sure you enjoy the major before you choose it.</p>

<p>Finance is about Microsoft Excel.</p>

<p>It can be about math and statistics.
