so that's why ivy grads run the banks on wall street and fill up all the analyst classes...b/c they don't have social skills.

rolls eyes

 

so half the posters on this board are from non-targets desperate to be the ones at those computers every second of the day...at the end of the day, every bank on wall street has been, is, and will be run by people from Ivy+MIT+Duke+Stanford+top LAC schools. can't argue with the facts.

:)

 

How do I have an inferority complex? Between target and non-targets, I choose a non-target. Non-targets tend to have social skills. The End.

 

Well thats not completely true sleepyguyb. Its whoever is best qualified, whether its target or non target but more than not, employers will pick target. I hate to admit it to but thats the way the cookie crumbles.

 

This whole thread was just a joke off of "why do non-targets even try." I didn't expect anyone to take it serious, looks like some targets did though. Maybe I wasn't far off even though I was only joking....
