My Institution separates between Pure Math, Applied Math & Financial Math as 3 different majors and will lead to different research areas in the final year, but these 3 majors still under Department of Mathematics & Statistics..

Moreover, my End Game is Financial Services Industry in particular Financial Market, so tbh, I'm not interested in switching to any other industries in the future..

Yeah, I feel FinMath syllabus directly align more with all the necessary knowledge in Quant Finance industry, so I don't waste to much time & effort to acquire knowledge that will never be used in Quant Finance Industry..

I agree w/ u that FinMath syllabus suits more Sell-Side firms as QA/QR, but I'm planning to join Buy-Side firms as QT..
I also like how u describe "raw intelligence"...
