Definitive ranking of LACs for IB
There seems to be a lot of opposing views regarding how LACs outside of Williams and Amherst do in terms of IB placement, so I was hoping this community could provide more info on which LACs actually perform well and which don't. In particular, I'd love to get more colour on Middlebury, W&L, Bowdoin, Hamilton, and Pomona.
Pomona - fairly weak, CMC has much stronger placement and alumni base. However can use Claremont college network so does okay for LA based banks but uphill battle for NY.
Bowdoin - Has a decent number of alum on the street but requires heavy networking to end up at a top BB/EB. Semi/Non target for Cowen/Barclays. Sort of underrated LAC for finance since it seems like most kids who want to get a job are able to given low interest of working on Wall Street at the school.
Middlebury - No structured pipeline to IB but lots of New England families that are well connected. Definitely have a shot but need to put in the work/network hard.
Interesting; would you say that recruiting from these schools as someone who doesn't fit the WASP jock stereotype would be harder?

Yeah. Obviously, there are some that try for a BB but end up at a MM/smaller name firm but that's usually due to weaker resume/not putting the time in on technicals and networking.
