I promise you all I will get a full time offer... I mufauckin swear

Top tier level IRL shit post

DCM - Struck out! - Fuck

TMT Group first round - Fuck, didnt study DCF... dome level (Now I know about DCF analysis like its no ones business... just sayin)

Upper MM - Killed it, didnt know a multi leg enterprise value calculation question - Fuck, well I was able to walk through it so maybe super day idk -Killed the other part of the technical interview

Boutique Superday - Fucking killed it, they love me. I love them.

Moral of the Story:

I came from the Tier 8 Ivy League school. I transferred in, but decided not to recruit while I was there cuz fratting it up was more important. Anyways I've been posting and lurking WSO for the longest time for information. I am here to show you all that it will be possible to achieve those 6 fig dreams from the lowest of levels. I failed out of college straight out of high school cuz I didn't care. Went to CC, and literally busted ass and got into the best school I can. Then proceeded to fuck around again so that didn't help. BUT I have the ambitions to achieve the banking dream. I will achieve NYC banker level status. If I don't get an offer this weekend then I'm calling it quits and gonna begin recruiting OD hard once I get back home after this internship ends in December. Will attempt to achieve BB level status with hella fire cover letters and a 3.2

Follow my journey of shit post dome level or not
