Tulane Freeman or UVA Econ

Hello,

So far I am admitted as an incoming junior to Tulane Freeman (on scholarship), UVA (Econ. NOT MCINTIRE. in state), W & M, and UNC-CH. I have narrowed down to UVA or Tulane Freeman. I really don't care if I get into DC aerospace/defense I-banking, NYC BB, or Houston/Dallas Energy S & T prop. I just want to know which school leads to the strongest pipeline of breaking in. Thanks for any input.

If your only goal is money (which is probably its own issue) then you have to realize you have to be good to actually make money. Prop shops/energy trading could make you bank or you could lose your job or get stuck in a scheduling position and making 200k max. I would go UVA if you could transfer into their Bschool or go Tulane and kill it. But figure what you do well first.

 

Yeah dude my only goal in life and career wise is to make money..wtf do you understand how retarded that sounds? Everybody has their own personal goals. I just did not come here to share them with the world. I came here to learn how to break into high finance. Like probably a very good many people on here. But thanks for the second part of the response that is more helpful.

 

Homie make something out of yourself before trying to call people retarded. You're just too young to understand that making money shouldn't be your only goal. Yea, most people on this forum want to make money, but the difference is it isn't everyone's sole career goal. You have to like the work too. Also work on your attitude man. If people don't like you, you aren't getting the job.
