Hey, I am considering doing a double major in business (finance) and accounting. I can do it in 4 years, I would just have a tight schedule with a tougher work load and not be able to take any elective classes that seem interesting. Is it worth it to risk a better GPA if I were just to mahjor in accounting? How does it benefit me if I want to go into financial services (i-banking, private equity, hedge fund, venture capital…) and/or corp. finance in energy or healthcare?

Accounting is the language of business so I would suggest you primarily focus your attention there. Finance is easier to teach yourself if you are a motivated individual but if you can handle the work load a double major will definitely help you get a job after college.

If you’re going into banking, then do the double. Otherwise, take some classes that will round out your education.
