I have to pick one major next year and I don't know which to pick from those two.

How are these majors compared to each other, and like hows the job prospects after uni too?

Have you done Accounting 2 or FBF? Shouldn't they have given you a general idea of you want to do?

I have done both Accounting and Accounting 2, and FBF. Honestly I'd like to do both but I can only pick one major. I still can't decide though which to pick. Like I'm not sure how these 2 majors turn out like and which would be a better choice to get a decent job

finance is harder than accounting as a choice between majors. there are definately more accounting jobs out there for graduates, less for finance, but if you manage to get a job in finance you'll get paid a lot more. pay for grad accountants is shit compared to IB grads
