MBB or BB out of undergrad? - Life Sciences
Title. I am currently studying biophysics/econ, and have significant independent/academic research in drug dev (I have discovered drug targets, given conference keynotes on market viability, etc); on the econ side, I don't have much, but I'm an underclassman still and want to gain more experience.
I was premed. Hence the heavy research focus; I still might get an MD or PhD, but for personal reasons, I don't think that being a clinician is right for me, and I've always been much happier actually getting drugs from Bench to Bedside. Regardless, I want to work for a few years out of undergrad, as I can still go to grad school after 2-3 years. However, I don't know whether targeting IB or Consulting is the move.
IB:
Pros: Higher Comp, immediate specialization in healthcare
Cons: WLB (Marginal Diff), More repetitive/less creative work at the Junior level, less business focus
Consulting:
Pros: Travel, more business focus, better exit opportunities (Client, PE, etc.), more creative work at the Junior level
Cons: Less Comp, Will become somewhat of a generalist for the first year or so
