IBD Placement Data
See uploaded image for data. Won't allow me to link article, but data taken from a group called Vettery.
I've copied the data down here for convenience, and added class size as well as percent placed for each school:
2014 Investment Banking Class
UPenn: 102 / 2428 = 4.2%
NYU: 76 / 5570 = 1.4%
Georgetown: 62 / 1909 = 3.2%
Cornell: 60 / 3282 = 1.8%
UMich: 51 / 7099 = 0.7%
Princeton: 46 / 1331 = 3.5%
Duke: 45 / 1664 = 2.7%
Harvard: 43 / 1681 = 2.6%
Columbia: 42 / 1521 = 2.8%
Yale: 42 / 1358 = 2.7%
Notre Dame: 41 / 2119 = 1.9%
Vanderbilt: 40 / 1709 = 2.3%
UC Berkeley: 38 / 6782 = 0.6%
University of Virginia: 38 / 4022 = 0.9%
UChicago: 30 /1415 = 2.1%
UNC: 29 / 4593 = 0.6%
Brown: 28 / 1614 = 1.7%
Emory: 26 / 1959 = 1.3%
Stanford: 25 / 1651 = 1.5%
UCLA: 22 / 5700 = 0.4%
Dartmouth: 21 / 1069 = 2.0%
USC: 21 / 4611 = 0.5%
Northwestern: 18 / 2172 = 0.8%
Please be wary that these are percentages coming from total class size, and not everyone in the class wants to do IBD. Also, some schools have more people interested in IBD than others.
What's the second number for?
also curious
It's class size... read his post. Jeez.
The class size number is completely irrelevant. Who knows how many people were strongly pursuing IB out of the entire size of the class.
There has to be a better way to refine the class size numbers to something more meaningful, but I don't know what that is.
probably should be # of kids actively recruiting for IB positions (though not sure how one would get that data)
This is retarded
Wow, is NYU that bad nowadays? Atleast ~250 people recruit for IB out of Stern alone, and then you have the CAS Econ kids...
NYU Stern, imo, has never been that good in the first place. It is the most expensive school in America, bar none, and almost anyone with a decent GPA and standardized test score can get in. Students go to Stern literally only to do IB. The infamous Stern curve makes for a bloodbath. Not to mention nearly half of Stern is Asian and international. Recruiters know this and they would rather hire a more well rounded candidate that is not only hard working, but sociable. Everyone knows that Sternies are Columbia rejects. The same goes for UCBerkeley are Stanford rejects.
As much as I respect UT guys, you have got to be one of the douchiest UT kids I have come across. The same can be said about you, you didn't get into Columbia / HYP / probably any ivies for that matter. Hence you go to UT. The same can be said about the majority of the kids gunning for IBD that are recruiting from the likes of Ross, UVA, Berkeley, Northwestern, etc. Only a small minority turn down ivies for those schools. What's your point? You literally copied and pasted the exact same answer just to shit on two schools.
I respect kids that have turned down higher tuition schools for solid state schools and still end up at great places. But you're just spewing out shit you don't even know enough about.
Should refine class size for #business and econ majors and maybe an arbitrary # of humanities majors...
not sure how the second numbers were computed. there are only about ~2400 kids in stern total, 600 per class.
Read again, it's not only Stern. It's all of NYU.
Interesting, but how much of a chance do you have if you go to CAS of the schools on the list ?
The post also doesn't take into account schools that have specialized, faculty run IB programs. There's several schools who have placements at or near 100% from those programs.
Not a chance this data is accurate. According to Princeton's career report, 12.5% of the class (155 people) went into Finance last year.. Now I understand that finance encompasses many roles, but there is no way that only 1/3 of the people who went into finance went into IB. At Harvard the figure is 17% (as opposed to 2.6% above) which makes me doubt the accuracy of every school on that list
Just a horrible post all-around. If 3000 kids from UVA genuinely wanted to land IB jobs, more than 38 would have gotten it. I don't even like Virginia.
Communist How many UT kids are going to NYC as Summer Analysts this year?
And is this just for New York, or the entire country?
