You guys asked the question... Don't be mad at me when the answer hurts your feelings...

McIntire can get you to IB which can get you to PE/VC, but you'll need to put in a lot of work.

Otherwise, since OP asked about going directly from UG, the answer is: HYPS...

 

Where did you get the idea that I had hurt feelings? I fucked around too much in highschool to get into a top 5 uni, but that doesn’t mean my buyside dreams are over (or anyone’s for that matter). Also, I think your preconceptions are wrong lol. I landed a buyside internship out of undergrad from that tier
