Business School Major Recommendation
I am an ap student who wants to go into hku business school, but I am unsure of what major I should choose from, and so I am looking for some advice.
Here are my stats (skip if you want to)
SAT: 1560
IELTS: 8.5
Hugeo, Precal, Physics I: 5
BC, Bio, Stats, Macro, Micro: all expected 5's (will update in a few weeks)
gpa 3.8 ish unweighted
Honorable Mention (2nd place) in committee at thai MUN (international)
2nd place for wsi nfte (international out of 2839 participants)
Vice president for a conservation club
Organized a fund raiser and donated 5000 baht and planted trees with a orgnaization under a university
I know that my stats arent as jacked as many of the applicants, but I think I might be able to get in. I am just deciding between Qfin and Fin&Becon. For Qfin, I know that it is pretty prestigous and it might pave the path to some very stable high paying jobs. But for that same reason there is a quota of only 30 students, and half of which are hk locals, effectively leaving me with 15 spots, which, after considering my stats, gives me a feeling that my chances of getting into that major is pretty slim. Plus I heard that a lot of quant dont have a degree in qfin specifically but instead a degree in math or com sci because the job has very little to do with actual finance but rather math and computers. I am a B+ to A- calc student at best and I am completely clueless when it comes to programming, which makes me further doubt this option.
On the other hand is Fin&BEcon. From my research I know its broader and is more traditional. But at the same time it might not lead to a high paying job right away, and honestly I am really worried about the future of fin&econ because of AI. Furthermore the major also gives me a feeling that it will require a lot of networking, and I am a little shy when it comes to socializing, or rather that I am not shy but I just don't know how to socialize.
For further information, I am definetly going to try to get a master's degree and I am open to doing dual degree programs. Among these two majors which one should I choose? Should I choose another major? Based on my Stats is a scholarship even possible (mainland chinese btw please dont hate on me)
