I got into Dartmouth early... is it still good for IB. I’ve heard the recruiting is getting weaker and weaker every year. Is that true it will I have a strong chance at landing a good finance job?

Idk if recruiting is really getting weaker but it’s possible due to banks targeting an ever-greater variety of schools (just look at JPM). Still a brand name though so as long as you keep your grades up and hustle a bit, you should be fine.
If you got into Dartmouth and no other ivies I would still go in a heartbeat...the alumni base is die hard. I work with a couple Tuckie’s and those dudes bend over backwards for UG kids all the time. Seriously have never seen something like it.
I’ve heard the alumni base is crazy would it help in getting a job?
