How much do Latin Honors matter in job hunting for high finance roles post-undergrad?
Hey guys, undergraduate about to graduate literally this month. I go to a non-target state school in NY and will start at a Big 4 TAS line this coming September.
I will graduate with a 3.49 but my school has a line of a 3.50 to get a "cum laude" designation. I can spend 1-2k on two courses over the summer for easy As to boost it over the 3.50 line.
My question is is it even worth the trouble to go through with this? I am torn by the fact that "cum laude" will seem as a big indicator of "intelligence" for the first 3-5 years I'm trying to network and get MM/Boutique IB/PE jobs from TAS, but I am unsure if I am overestimating how much high finance roles really care about this designation.
