Upcoming WSO Meetups: LONDON THURSDAY (June 20th)
Hello all, I was wondering about the GPA cutoffs/ranges that major firms have for giving out FT first-round interviews. Let's say that we're talking about MBB/OW/Monitor/Deloitte, and of course the cutoffs will probably be different for different firms. I'm at a top 5 UG...
FT Interview GPA Cutoffs/Ranges

Debt/free cash free, how do you balance the BS in a merger?
The Fed said today that the economy's getting better, so they may taper asset purchases at some point later this year/early next year. If they said the economy's getting better, why did stocks fall? is it fear? uncertainty? can someone please explain? Apologies in advance if this is a...
Why did the stock market fall today, after the FOMC statement?
I've asked similar questions before, but I'm wondering how much student debt the average target has on here? I'm generally extremely against debt, and am hesitant to take out loans even for a target school. I hope there is a way into a top MBA without a top undergraduate degree so...
How much student debt do you have?
All, I am a senior, graduating in December from a non-target school, with a BS in Economics, minor in philosophy. I have previous internships in politics and finance. My goal is to land an entry level position anywhere in finance, but preferably an analyst program at a middle market investment...

I've always been curious about how things work in the world of C-Suite executives and board of directors. Just when do they make the decision that XYZ, who is the face of the brand, have stayed too long in the game to matter...

What models that you learn in banking are also used in PE? Just LBO models or do you also sometimes do DCFs, comps, merger models, sum-of-parts, etc? I'm assuming you need to be able to build 3-statement operating models to power the LBO...

It's been going on for a few years, and it looks like it's intensifying. Prop shops such as GETCO, Peak 6, Archelon, Hard Eight, Allston, and others are going more into customer based businesses such as internal hedge funds and services. This article discusses this trend. Is this proof...

Hey guys, you may have noticed that we have just launched a new header to try and bring us closer to a Web 3.0 look. Less clutter, etc. It may take a while to get used to and we still have some cool changes to bring to it, but I think once we're done you'll be very happy with the...

Bank of America vs Capgemini (Please Help)
OK, it's already pretty hard to forecast stock prices - but at least every stock factor ties down to earnings eventually. How the hell do banks forecast GDP or rates? Are there any commonly accepted frameworks analogous to a DCF for stocks? My guess is they have to break down the C + I...

I'm currently at an oil major. I will have the chance to direct my career towards financial or physical trading. Have met with a few traders and some common themes have surfaced, namely that physical traders at oil companies get paid more than financial traders (as a gross over-generalization)...
