Ok so I get that pedigree wins almost every time. I’m going to penn state world campus ( finance track )because I’m in the military and schools around me are worse than PSU. So why is it that most people say I’m doomed in getting a role in IB or HF for that matter. Should I just suck it up and go straight into MBA after?

You’re not doomed. You’re unique being that you’re serving the country so what you have to do is network with people in general and network with people who were once in your shoes and are where you want to be in the future whether it’s/ IB /PE etc. penn state has presence on the street both sell side and buyside so you’re not doomed.
I’ve heard that. But they’re all from the actual smeall school not world campus but I shouldn’t dice that so quickly.

Read this forum. Read the Bschool forum. Literally any post tied to doing an MBA straight from undergrad gets filled with replies saying it's a terrible idea. You aren't screwed because of the school you go to, you are screwed because you are lazy and aren't able to take advantage of the resources right infront of you.
