OCR at Cornell AEM?

Hi everyone, I am a high school senior who recently committed to Cornell Dyson for undergrad. I was wondering what OCR is like from Dyson, and which firms recruit on campus? Specifically, how good is OCR from BBs and EBs? How strong of a target is Dyson compared to other target schools and ivies? Also, although this is rare, I am ideally aiming for a buyside position after graduation, so I was wondering if PE/HF firms like KKR, Blackstone, and Bridgewater had OCR at Cornell, like they do at Wharton for example?

Thanks!

Relax hardo, you're just a kid in highschool. In fact I can't say that a kid in HS with no industry experience even understand what PE firms really do. Congrats on Dyson but take a deep breath and realize that there's more to life than the prestige of your job. Breaking into buy-side is extremely rare in undergrad. Calm down and have some fun in college, because no one wants to work with a stickler obsessed with PE in HS.
