Depends what you want to do, I'd say that 99% of the people i know in the industry didn't study finance, but i work on a trading floor. All of the quants i know studied maths or physics. I'd say that if you're going to study finance with a view to working in the industry, figure out where you want to work and study appropriate subjects for that area.
