sophomore dilemma
im a sophomore from a semi-target business school - ross school of business. im considering to pursue a career in IBD and ultimately in hedge fund or PE firms. IBD is probably the single most competitive jungle in the world. i know almost all BB firms have pretty damn attractive sophomore programs but the chance is slim. im trying to secure a "legitimate" summer intern this summer either in boutiques firms or PE & hedge funds (while apply to BB). so whats the best and graceful sophomore strategy? should i avoid directly applying to IBD this year but, instead, apply to PWM or research department to enhance my chance? background:
I would call Ross a target. It is a top business school. Start looking for boutique shops or call up some alumni. You have a good GPA and the prereq PWM internship early on. You should do fine.
how is that a slump?
i switched it to dilemma
Definitely get the GPA up. 3.8 at Ross isn't top 5%. Everyone who gets the GS, MS and MBB interviews has over a 4.2.
Trust me, it'll get annoying come recruiting when the same people get the interview slots.
PWM or anything finance related will get you the interviews.
i was in LSA and the max GPA is 4.0. im starting ross this fall and thanks for ur advice.
what the fuck is a 4.2
