75% happens through clubs
West Coast IB recruiting is mostly done through clubs. I would literally major in gender studies and be in the Trojan Investing Society rather than be in Marshall and have 0 clubs. Same applies with UCLA Cal etc
At Cal (Haas) and can confirm that you can be very successful from any major / background, but more so if you're involved in any feeder clubs.
