Everyone once and a while i stop in and peruse the posts in this forum. Judging from many of them, id say roughly 1% of the people who come here have actually worked in the industry. So with this in mind, what would each of you guess the average age is here? I'm going to go with 19.

Definitely older that 19. 19 is Freshman in College and most people here are Soph/Jr/Sr or already in IB. A good amount of people here are working in the industry, interned, and or have offers to do so this summer.
I second the estimation. I'd so mostly college sophomores, juniors and seniors roam these boards and probably a handful of high schoolers and college freshmen. I'm a high school senior and I'm 16 years old, btw.
25 going on 30 bitches.
based on lot of college juniors, seniors and 1st, 2nd year analysts.
i'd take the average = 22 years old :)
21 yrs old.
21 MAX.
I'm 23 for the record.
roll
i'm 21, and i'd say the average is somewhere around there, maybe a couple years higher
