Should I keep pursuing my finance major or switch to financial mathematics?

[nestih]

Hello everyone, I am currently a sophomore attending Baruch college. I want to be a securities Trader and I am currently majoring in finance with a minor in mathematics. I have been getting lots of mixed opinions on my major, some people telling me to switch to the financial mathematics degree(BSFM), and some saying to stay in finance mainly from the finance and math department. Does anyone have any advice?
Thanks
