Do I have a chance at ib
Hey guys I’m currently going to radford university in Va we have some alumni on wall street one big one is a goldman sachs his name is Brian Robinson, just wanted to know if I can still make it in ib or s&t while going to this university, any advice for breaking in anything helps.
Probably not ngl. You can try obviously, but the jump would be like if the bears won the NFL
Try for MM banks first and then lateral upmarket from there after a year or two. It'll be pretty hard to make it in BB / EB and might be a waste of your time better spent on recruiting elsewhere
Thanks for the positive feedback should I try to MM in my city or should I try to MM in new york that’s where I want to be? any advice helps
Try for both. Would imagine regional will be easier. Like other poster said - can try to move after a year or so.
Do both - you'd hate to spend so much time recruiting in NY and not get that or anything where you're currently at. Have a few regional boutiques by you as a worst case scenario if you don't get placed in MM.
I'll be honest, MM will probably still be hard, lots of targets and semitargets landing at MMs. Would recommend going for LMM and regional boutiques.
If you're from VA you could try to transfer to UVA where your chances will be significantly better
Uphill battle. Honestly I went to high school in NoVa and the kids who went to Radford could barely fog a glass. If you’re smart you should be able to annihilate there. Your best bet is to get a 4.0 your first year and transfer ASAP to UVA. Even W&M would be better. I broke in from a complete non-target party school but it took a hell of a lot of networking and luck. I had a couple other options and looking back I would have gone to a different school or transferred.
Thank you alot for the advice will plan to transfer in the spring.
HSC guy?
It’ll be tough. I went to a non-target school in VA and worked for about 5 years before going to get an MBA. It is absolutely doable, but if you want to get in straight from undergrad you’re going to want to transfer to UVA, William & Mary, or W&L.
Robinson is there for diversity quotas.
I would count as an diversity student
bro just aired out someone’s government in an anonymous forum, crazy
thought it was weird too but he’s pretty high up at GS so not as odd. Still a little weird tho
