Boston College
If I go here, will I make it to either a top MM, BB, or EB. that’s what i want to know. assuming i meet the threshold for gpa. this is all i want to know. Will I make it.
There are plenty of BC kids on the street.
No.
why. also are u being serious
Yes
This FTParadise guy went to a target school and only ended up with FTP. He's coping so hard, he could only dream of getting a BB/EB offer
At least it's better than IU Kelley
so is it not good arw u saying?
BC is def not ideal but you can still break in just expect to work much harder than someone from a target
Congrats on FTP bro, you gonna lateral to a real EB?
Good luck recruiting can't wait to see you at Shiti next year

I'm a sophomore with a BofA offer, you would dream to ever get an offer from a BB/EB. Have fun at your middle market firm bro
Congrats on the diversity hire bro sounds like you really deserved it
Im not diversity, retard.
YOU WISH YOU MADE DB/UBS or any BB INSTEAD UR STUCK WITH A GARBAGE ASS FIRM FTP.
Cope!!
LMAOO why are you so mad, is it because you will make less than me (140k base an1 btw)?
COPE MORE INTERN!!!! YOU WISH YOU MAKE A BB THERE IS A REASON EVERYONE FROM FTP LATERALS OUT. CAIN BROTHERS PAYS MORE THAN BARCLAYS BUT NO ONE IS PICKING CAIN BROTHERS OVER BARCLAYS. FTP EXITS TO WALMART AND MCDONALDS BRO. You wish you had my BofA offer, but you couldn’t even from a target school while I went to a semi/non-target
Sorry not all of us are minorities/daddy's money. Talk shit when you finally learn what the WACC formula is. Hope they teach that at a non target.
You are jealous of my offer just admit it kid LOL
L
HAHHAHA who is taking FTP over BofA? FTP exits to MCDONALDS AND WALMART there is a reason everyone laterals from FTP
lmao ur talking shit as a freshman. Cant wait for you not to get a return offer because youre clearly an android that has 0 social skills. Cant imagine daddys reactions when his own son gets rejected at the firm where he is an MD. See you at McDonalds bro
Stfu, pussy. This FTParadise guy went to a target school and only ended up with FTP. He's coping so hard, he could only dream of getting a BB/EB offer
Ok Prospect
Relax guys, you’re both doing jobs that a rhesus monkey could be trained to do, just exorbitantly overpaid for it. Matter of fact most ppl on (including myself) are lol.
I would go with UVA but BC is still good
Lol. Yes. So many bc alums out there
Yes BB and some EB is very much possible especially if come in knowing about IB and take it seriously
OP raised some hell fire down here wtf this comment section 😂
😂😭
Quick summary, average past 1-3 years:
6 Barclays
6 UBS
4 DB
8 Citi
2-4 GS
3 JPM ( no chance if you're not diverse)
1 MS (no chance if you're not diverse)
1-2 BofA (almost no chance if you're not diverse)
2 CVP
~2 Moelis/Laz Boston
At least 3 dozen between MMs
From what my younger classmates told me, there were ~50 *well qualified* students gunning for IB when recruiting started to ramp up. This includes people who cant network or interview for shit. After the IB hype passes around the sophomore class, usually at least 50-100 more decide to toss their hat into the ring, which are the instances of people that you hear striking out.
Statistically speaking, 1-2 total to NY EB annually. However, it's pretty easy to network yourself into the process if you are a strong student and come prepared, and BC seems to be a respected name. Unlike the BBs above, there is no "we can only take 6 BC kids" from the EBs, you're simply placed into a group with other non-targets, which can arguably be better.
Get a freshman/sophomore LMM boutique internship, have a 3.8+, network and interview well (read: Don't be socially awkward), be involved on campus and EB/top MM / Barc/UBS/DB should be easy. Our GS recruiting is run by one woman and it's a totally messed up system. Other BBs will always be a crapshoot for BC. Between the BC name and our various associates+ across the street at random shops even where we don't have an alumni network (Allen, Solomon, Moe, GHL), you really should be fine - just need to put in the work and it should be guaranteed. The only way you screw up is by only networking (and not even doing it well) with firms where we have a capped number of spots like UBS, or by being a weak candidate.
We also have a banking club that will handhold you through the entire process (resume, networking, technicals, behaviorals, how to dress, etc.) that has become competitive, but again, if you're a strong candidate you're pretty much guaranteed a spot and with the exception of Barclays, it's not like IU Kelley where it's a club specific pipeline.
so would u say BC is a semi target overall?
Yes
How should I go about getting a LMM boutique internship freshman year?
How was consulting at BC?
deleted
Also wondering how do the shops where BC doesn't have alums (GHL, LionTree) view the school and how hard it is to break into those shops.
