Prospect in IB-M&A, sorry there are no responses yet. Maybe one of these topics can point you in the right direction:

  • USC Marshall vs. WashU Olin
  • Umich ross vs USC marshall vs washu
  • Umich ross vs usc marshall vs washu cas
  • USC vs Washu vs Fordham for IB
  • Undergrad WashU Olin vs USC Marshall
  • USC Marshall vs WashU Olin vs Georgia Tech
  • Washu STL?

More suggestions...

Fingers crossed that one of those helps you.

From what I’ve heard, everyone from WashU who tries for IB breaks in. There are like 150 kids in the bschool and most go for consulting, but there are a bunch of WashU kids in IB in Chicago and NYC. USC’s a great school with solid placement, but it just doesn’t have the prestige or alumni network to compete with WashU (outside of LA). I also have a hunch that USC’s placements are inflated by the number of kids who are already rich and well connected.
