Second Tier US or Top tier Canada? Which is better for BB NYC IB/trading?
Go to a semi-target in Canada (so non-target basically).
Looking to break into trading/IB (GPA: 7.7/10..roughly 3.4 joint hon in poli sci & econ (yeah, I know..poli sci). Drank too much in first year but have been pretty steady since.
What is more beneficial to enhance my profile to apply to top MBAs in the US? I think the market is saturated with MSFs, tbh. So I'm leaning towards econ.
Is it best to: go to one of the best schools in Canada (Mcgill, Queens, u of t) or go to a semi-target in the US? (Vandy, Duke, possibly NYU, etc.)? Or do you have any other suggestions for programs? Thoughts?
P.s. Happy Independence Day to all of you in the US!
Couple of my friends went to McGill. They ended up working for some well known BB banks in London. So I would say go Canada. But do be aware that while the Canadians use GPA like the Americans, they grade harder, at least McGill does.
Thanks. It's one of my choices now but their econ program really isn't supposed to be that good (there's no MSF) so I'm pretty weary about it. Also the recruitment opportunities seem kind of ambiguous for Masters students.
They do grade pretty hard here unfortunately. I go to a school with about 35000 students and I think only 8-10 or something had near perfect GPAs.
Thanks for the feedback
Duke and NYU are targets here.
I second ibplanet here. Duke is a target. Vandy & NYU non stern are semi targets as well.
If you can get into Duke, go there. It's a solid target.
Any other masters econ programs you guys are aware of?
(that are targets)
Have you thought about applying to MSF's in the UK?
Dunno about MSF's. I just find that the market is saturated with them. But yeah. LSE (a bit of a longshot) for econ, Warwick M Fin and Econ, maybe St. Andrew's (but probably not). Lots of other good MSFs in europe (St. Gallen, HEC, Oxbrige (but nearly impossible), etc.)
