How come you’re doing Econ consulting major if you solely want High finance? ———————————————————————— I found this on the website and confirmed that it’s true through each schools employment reports.
IU Economic consulting (average salary 2019) - $73,000
UVA Econ (average salary 2019) - $61,000
Around 80% of students reported their salary at both schools. IU Economic consulting (% of students doing consulting in major) - 67%
UVA Econ (% of students doing consulting in major) - 25%.
-I grew up in Chicago and have tons of Kelley friends, so this might be biased. Finance is wayyyy too competitive there and half the students pick that major, that’s why it’s so hard to get into ib from that school. However, Economic consulting gets recruitment from multiple mm pe shops and Chicago trading. On the website it shows, 8% of Econ consulting majors go into ib (probably 5-6% are FO). So I’m guessing Chicago boutiques recruit from this major. UVA Econ is also great. UVA is a great school and it might be easier to get into ib even without mcintire. However, looking at both the employment reports and personal experience, Kelley seems like the best option. Good luck!
Dude, UVA econ is for the kids who DON'T get into McIntyre. And I don't think I've ever seen anybody with above a 1200 SAT score use salary data to compare schools.
OP, UVA is a much better target than IU. IU is a safety school. Go there if you don't get in anywhere else.
INDIANA UNIVERSITY IS SO BAD IGNORE THE 100S OF IU KIDS WHO STALK THIS forum please.. IU gets 0 respect from people lol
Why the fuck are there so many Kelley shills on this post? UVA for any major and it's not even close.
Kelley kids are hella whack. By the time you start recruiting for IB at UVA, you don't even get into McIntire yet. Go to UVA and major in whatever the fuck you want. Don't listen to any of these Kelley circlejerkers, it's fucking disgusting. You guys are comparing a T30 school vs. a T80 school. Most kids who go to Kelley couldn't have even gotten into UVA...
I know the whole "target" topic gets way out of hand when people start splitting hairs and talking about semi-targets and all that.
But this kind of decision, IU vs. UVA, is why the target label exists. The label isnt' there to tell us that HYP is target, everyone already knows that. Its there to help someone decide between two otherwise comparable schools where one is above the line and one isn't.
UVA is a target. And no, that's not just McIntire. Its Econ too. A lower target? Sure, but a target.
Kelley isn't. Is it the next best thing? Maybe. It sends a good number of people to Wall Street, for a non target. It might even be the best of the rest.
You should go where you'd be most comfortable. But that's personal. If you're asking strangers, the answer is UVA.
Sorry you didn't break 4-digits on your SAT score buddy
