qfs = cvp, sof = gs, fs = jpm, peg = evercore, ssig = pjt, iag = ?, cmc = barclays.
These might be the worst takes I’ve ever heard and you didn’t provide reasoning to support your claims. Definitely losing out to the Stern curve every semester.
cvp and qfs both the most iq based, (interviews filled with brain teasers and mental math problems), sof nationwide many locations and thousands of members but still highly respected basically everywhere (same as gs), ssig and pjt both the top of their specific fields but still not bad everywhere else, fs and peg js the vibes match. u disagree let’s hear yours
Congrats on SOF
Missing a couple I think...
FS: Evercore/JP Morgan/GS - Most established brand, FS->EVR pipeline is still pretty strong.
PEG: Any good RX - PEG is a pretty RX focused club, hype around it is a little newer but definitely well-earned.
SOF: Barclays - Good brand, well run, just not nearly as selective as the above two.
BAP IBD: Citi - Pretty much the same story as SOF here.
IAG: Greenhill - Seems to have made a questionable choice to remain really small, not as cool as it was, tough interviews.
QFS: PJT M&A - Maybe a little overhyped by some, but still elite w/ good culture.
CMC: RBC/TD/BMO - Totally respectable, just not as exclusive as the other names here.
For fun I'll do the finance adjacent ones too since a couple are still valuable and helpful for IB.
SREG: Any half-decent REPE/REIB shop - Don't think too hard on this one
AKPsi: Sage Kelly's HC group at Jefferies - Iykyk
SVS: Guggenheim - Strong tech presence, they think they're cooler than everyone else for some reason.
Not doing SSIG since it takes everyone.
For more detailed context this is some info for class of 2027. Although there is plenty of overlap in these clubs in general seems like PEG most consistent with quality and quantity.

PEG: EVR: 1 M&A/2 RX, PJT: 2 RX, HL: 1 RX, Greenhill: 1 RX, BDT & MSD: 1, Centerview: 1 M&A, WF: 1
