Hey all,
I just wanted opinions on this- I recently got an invitation to join Phi Kappa Phi (top 7.5% or juniors) at my school. It seems to be based only on GPA. Is it worth the $85 for admission? It seems like something you just pay for and put on your CV.
Also, I already got a IBD summer analyst position for the summer and am wondering how much it will really add to my CV..
Thanks a bunch!

its only 85 bucks dude
You could always just say Phi Kappa Phi Honor Society invitee (top 7.5%)
absolutely. 85 bucks is nothing. Phi Beta Kappa is a prestigious validation to have on your profile
If you take a leadership position in it. If you just have "Member" on there, who gives a shit. Just shows you wasted $85
The 4 lines on your resume that tell people where you went to school is worth $250k. What's $85 for a line?
