Title basically explains it. Graduate in December, start full-time in August. What would you do? Intern in finance? Bartend? Travel? Chill and live at home? Money isn’t really an issue…

Travel 100%, will never have this amount of time off for a long time
Read a lot, travel, get some new hobbies
get fit (muscular and cardiovascular), take the gmat / gre if you have any inkling about business school (can do this in 3-4 months of focused study), travel, have copious amount of sex, spend time with your loved ones (family and friends), prioritize forming new relationships where possible, do a couple once in a life type activities (climb a tall mountain, swim with sharks etc), reflect on your life and what you want out of it
Bumping this, set a super hard physical goal for right before u start, running a marathon, climbing a big ass mountain whatever, and train ur ass off. U wanna be in the best shape u can before u start so you can trickle ur fitness down to “below average” once you quit, if u start at “average” things look bleak after u leave
Definitely get as healthy as possible because once you hit the desk you don't have time to run / go to gym
Alright will add am already in very good shape... Would prefer a break from training for once lol. Anything else?
Quos facilis aut dignissimos reiciendis. Cumque laborum nihil eligendi in. Rerum assumenda dicta dolor. Dolor natus cum sed debitis sed perspiciatis tempore sapiente.
