I am in my first semester as a junior at Binghamton University. I am majoring in Mathematical Sciences and Economical Analysis.
By the end of this year I will have finished Calc 1 2 3, Linear Algebra, ODE, PDE, and a introduction to higher mathematics class, as well as intermediate microeconomic and macroeconomic theory.
I can graduate by next year easily if I follow this path. I want to go to graduate school for Mathematical Finance.
Is it better for me to spend an extra year in college (this is only my second year in college because of advanced placement credits) and get a degree in financial engineering and math or graduate next year with economical analysis and math?
Also is there any difference in a mathematical finance and financial engineering?
What will I need as a prereq to get into a top PHD program in this quant finance feild, and what will I need to get on the GRE?
