Are u serious! OMG i absolutely abhor math and i may want to work in wall street too. I think im just investment savvy when it comes to telling people what stocks/companies they should invest in, but the math part is the one thing i absolutely loathe! Hopefully this trend doesnt continue when I get my MBA (or even if i really get one because im kinda ambivalent between being a surgeon or an ant that works his way up to the top of the ladder in wall street).
