Hi there
Send pics?
Don't mind the guys above, they're just giving you a hard time and/or hitting on you. But yea, some pictures would be nice to get better acquainted. I'm here to lend a helping hand.
Hi
You trickster, you...
I need help as well. This site won't let me post this anywhere else so can someone help me? I am currently a high school junior and am very interested in getting into finance. Specifically and hopefully Investment Banking, Private Equity, Hedge Fund or something on Wall Street. I know it sounds materialistic but I have taken numerous business, account, finance, and math courses and I love it. Unfortunately my chances of getting into a target-school aren't looking so hot as my freshmen and sophomore year of high school I did not take too seriously. After last year (my sophomore year) my GPA was 3.00. Not good at all I know, however after this year it should be up quite a bit considering I am Acing pre-calc (alg. III & trig) and also Acing my honors history course, with all other subjects in check as well. Furthermore since I am excelling this year I am taking AP Government, Honors Calculus, AP Stat, honors English, and academic Physics next year. I had the chance the take AP Literature but I feel as if it would be too much of a work load, opinions? So back to the point, I just took my SATs so I will know my general score shortly. But based off of what you know now, what schools should I begin to look at for a finance type major to try to get into what I'm interested in. I am from Pennsylvania. Also I play sports year round (soccer, basketball, tennis) & plan on joining the debate team next year. Thanks!
Love an update on this.
His username is his actual name, so a quick google search appears to shows that he didn't end up making it into banking, private equity, or a hedge fund. He works in insurance and he's currently an underwriting trainee. He just graduated college last year according to his Linkedin which is consistent with him being a high junior in March of 2014. Also, his Linkedin indicates he's from Pennsylvania and this is also shown in the comment. He didn't do what he said he would when he was in high school, but all in all, he seems to be secure. Might even be happy. I hope he is. Keaton, if you're reading this, I hope you're happy dude!
