Whatever the case, finance is probably better than my plan. I'm majoring in philosophy and music performance in preparation for law school.

Hey and at least if the law thing doesn't work out you still have a background to fall back on, my political science friends are kind of the opposite right now XD.

lowsound | studying logic and argumentation is good preparation for the lsat, but if you know what kind of law you want to go into, (finance for the oP?) you might go for a minor in philosophy. Or major in philosophy and realize you don't want to go to law school  |

Or major in philosophy and realize you don't want to go to law school | You can never go wrong with philosophy and logic is something that most people don't understand, so studying that will make you stand out in a crowd. Just don't start breaking down people's arguments by saying stuff like "If p then q. Not p. Therefore, not q", use actual words.

Common Majors are usually Poly Sci, History, English, etc..
Doesn't really matter though, as long as you're well rounded. |
