Introduction: High school student in a New York suburb (ok, northern NJ), aspiring to major in finance, likely to become an investment banker. Any advice? Any myth busters? I know investment banking is one of those careers that seems glamorous but is really filled with sleep deprivation and PowerPoint modifications :P Also, I've heard that if you don't get into an Ivy League or other high-ranked school, your shot at breaking into the "elite" investment banking industry decreases. Is that true? Thanks, AssassinKhajit

Check out this site in the knowledge part (?) and another site, read up on the basics of the industry then search the forums here for more specific information. Nearly every basic question has been asked and answered multiple times so you'll find out a lot, but it's best to get the basics from those write ups and not from the forum. At your age though, concentrate on getting good grades and get into the best possible college you can. That will make breaking into nearly any area of finance much easier.

Hey :D
