t1- Williams/Amherst t2- Colgate (esesntially a d1-nescac), Middlebury, Wesleyan, Tufts (not really a nescac) t3-Hamilton, Trinity, Bowdoin, Colby, Bates

Notable: Bowdoin places quite poorly considering its academic reputation is almost on par with Amherst/Williams. My guess is, not too many MD alumni on the street, and its Maine location doesn't really help. Trinity places above its nescac rank due to well-placed alums. Apparently, Trinity has the 4th highest percentage of alumni millionaires in the country. -I'd place a bet that Amherst and Williams on a per capita basis place better than most targets (minus Wharton/Harvard/Yale). Williams sent 6 people to GS IBD last year, and most BBs take 2-3, which is insane given there are 40 people seriously considering banking each year and probably 20 with a relevant internship prior to junior recruiting.
