Western Ivey x McGill for Toronto IB
Got into both and was wondering which one I should choose if my main goal is to break into Bay Street's IB scene. Can you guys help me out by offering your perspectives?
- I know Ivey is way better for US placements, but given the current political scenario, I guess that's not going to be an option moving forward, so I'm mainly focusing on north of the border. Therefore, is there a substantial difference between Ivey and McGill for Bay St.? One that would justify living in London instead of Montreal...
- I've read a post somewhere from a current Ivey student saying that Ivey is not worth it anymore (for reasons which I can't remember) and that aspiring students should avoid it. If you are another Ivey student, I would love to read your thoughts about it...
- Hate people who give excuses for failing and are always blaming their lack of success on a multitude of factors, but being an ugly-looking non-white male, I have to ask: I know I'll have to bootlick club presidents in order to get into them, but is there a difference between those two schools, regarding how "fratty" and "monochromatic" their finance clubs are?
- Can I still break into IB if I choose Ivey and don't get accepted into the WIC (or clubs as such)?
Can I still break into IB if I choose McGill and don't get accepted into MIC/RedPoint Capital?
Thanks a lot, lads

2. Ivey as an institution blows, most of the profs suck, exorbitantly expensive, and the massive growth in class sizes means the median student is borderline mentally retarded. That said, it’s a really fun time and I think generally worth it.
3. Hard to say since didn’t go to both, but changes lots year-to-year with different club leadership. You don’t need to be white or good-looking to get on clubs at western, they are generally pretty meritocratic. Just try not to insufferable.
4. Yes, great club outcomes are in large part correlation. Would not view as gating to your placement.
5. Idk but probably given above.
