How much does GPA matter for top EB's?
Insecure prospect #5832 here on WSO coming from a target. I know EB's are a bit more selective GPA-wise so I was wondering if anyone could give me some advice. I fucked up one of my classes first semester with a B (I'm a freshman with a 3.77 and a B in a 3 credit course). I'll most likely get it up to a 3.9 or something this semester. Like, once I get to ~3.9 it really doesn't matter, right? I'm also double-majoring in a hard science which most people don't do which might give me some leeway. 3.9 in Math looks better than a 3.9 in Econ I guess.
STEM major might give you a bit of leeway to be lower. But in general 3.7+ is good to get you past the initial cutoff, and 3.9+ is great. My analyst class from my school going to boutique in NYC all has 3.9+. You're fine I think
You'll probably be fine, take it easy. Which target?
TBH if you don't attend a target, minoring in CS/Math is incredibly beneficial for differentiating yourself. I am friends with two people at BX who used math/CS minors to help them land top BB IB --> BX. Had they only majored in finance I really don't think they'd get their initial IB offers.
But yeah, if you go to a target, it doesn't matter
