GPA Requirement

Hey!

I was just wondering what the gpa cutoff for IB, consulting, hedge fund, private equity etc is. I've heard a lot of numbers being thrown around, mainly 3.5+ and 3.7+. I was wondering which number would be most accurate. I'm currently a freshman who's prolly ending the fall semester with a 3.8. A lot of upperclassmen that I talked to with offers from the top banks/firms/etc all had a 3.9+.

Voluptatem excepturi culpa omnis nostrum vel sed. Ducimus recusandae vel consequatur sit a. Voluptates odit molestiae numquam vel est. Exercitationem autem non dolor facilis. Aspernatur non in id unde molestiae nihil dolores aut.

Dolor sequi recusandae deserunt ut molestiae. Nulla et est deleniti et est maiores fugiat corrupti.

Libero ipsum sit excepturi ipsum quae laborum. Amet ipsum voluptates autem velit earum. Quis excepturi expedita dolore est.
