In my final grade of high school (Ontario, Canada) and will be attending university Fall 2007. I have a few possibilities but don't know what I should be picking. After graduating I am interested in making lots of money and willing to work long hours. Should I look at iBanking?

Possibilities

Bachelor of Accounting and Financial Management -
University of Waterloo

BBA or iBBA - York / Schulich School of Business

B Comm - Queen's University

suggestions?

Ibanking is no fun, or so I've heard.

shanerr no offense but you sound like a tool, college is about meeting new people and then partying as hard as you can with them for a few years before you get stuck grinding out the rst of your life at some job you hate, not getting ready to grind the rest of your life out.

however on a serious note you can pretty much major in whatever you want, and as long as you are smart/get good grades you can do whatever you want afterwards. many law/med/grad schools are very interested in accepting kids with "non-traditional" backgrounds for their postgraduate education, so study what you want

I guess that makes me a tool.

You'll figure out what you want to do, very few people should go into their freshman year sure about what they want to do.

I agree.

I started in criminology, changed to Finance, and now I'm currently at Economics and plan on staying with it.

Definitely true. I came to Michigan intending to go to its B-school. Instead I decided that I really liked to read and write; so I'm an English and Philosophy major.
