My deposit is down for the Corporate track. I wanted a program that places well into the Midwest or Northeast and WUSTL has a strong record in those regions. The general prestige of the university and relatively competitive class profile were also positives.
I have some full time work experience that is somewhat relevant, strong gpa and gmat and am looking to work in asset management. I'll PM you and we can discuss further.
Have you tried looking at their websites? These programs provide this type of information there.
I decided against WUSTL, but here are my stats that got me into the corporate track:
700 GMAT (43Q/42V) 3.6 GPA Three IB internships Founded own company
I don't believe their website has any information about the actual students that comprise this years program. They have averages and aggregates that give me only a vague idea about the characteristics/qualities of my potential classmates. Also, and I'm not accusing WUSTL of this, but schools tend to embellish (based solely on my own anecdotal experiences).
Either way, thank you for sharing your profile.
Fair enough. I was just trying to make sure that you utilize all avenues, as I am sure this will be a big decision for you.
Good luck!
GMAT: 710 GPA: 3.5/4.0 (graduated in 2 years) 1 year work at a brokerage firm, internship with tech company.
Going into the corporate track. I selected WUSTL generally based on geographic preference, as I really like the Midwest.
Cheers!
3.0 UGPA 3.5 Law School GPA No GRE/GMAT
Going to start in the Corp Fin track but trying to decide between making the Corp Fin track more quantish or transitioning into the quant track.
3.2 GPA. B.A in applied math from Berkeley GMAT: 750 8-month intern in a mid-size Chinese securities company. Quant track.
Well I got selected in the corporate finance Track. Hopefully will be joining you guys this fall.
What were your stats if you don't mind me asking? My buddy just got dinged from WUSTL.

hahahahaha such a nerd. Yo Chris, what up? Also, is that April and John?
apologies for reviving a semi-old thread here, but I recently graduated undergrad and have been working full time in BB back office. I have stats that should get me into WUSTL, but I can't find placement stats anywhere. My career goal would be IB analyst, preferably BB (Obviously would take a buy side analyst position as well). I appreciate any insight you guys have here.
Thanks in advance bro's I'm really trying to figure out which school would be the best fit.
