what kind of college course setup is recommended for becoming a stock broker?

Question

what would be a recommended major? any recommended colleges in new jersey?

Answer 1

The best majors would be Economics or Finance -- but you can become a stock broker with any major.

As for New Jersey -- in my opinion, the only schools worth looking at in the state are Princeton (an elite private school ), Rutgers (a very good public university) or The College of New Jersey (a good regional public university). For other fields, NJIT or Stevens might be OK. The other colleges in NJ just aren't that good. On the other hand, there are a lot of good universities in Eastern Pennsylvania.
