Im currently a Lawyer in NYC who is looking to get into Banking. I was curious as to how much my undergrd (standard state school - think penn state, rutgers, Uconn, etc) would matter much as I also attended a top Law School. Im aware that IB values undergrad and i dont want to pursue a career in which i wont be able to be the best because of my undergrad school choice.
