Help Me Pick a Game Plan

[nebben]

I am currently a sophomore at the University of Michigan (I heard school is relevant in financial occupations). I am majoring in economics, and currently have a GPA of 3.2 cummulative due to one horrible (2.6) semester my freshman year. It has been on the rise since then. I have taken a financial accounting course, and plan to take a managerial accounting course. I am interested in the finance field, as a trader, as a financial advisor, something of the like. Can anyone help me out with picking my courses over the next couple years? I know it is a competitive field, and most of the related resources at my school are directed to BBA students. What would you guys recommend?

Becoming a financial advisor is pretty easy. Having any business or finance background you can get into a registered rep position fairly easily with an average GPA. Every company in that industry will accept you if you interview well enough.
