Used LinkedIn to compare a few universities. Thoughts?

No idea how to insert a picture into a post on this site so here's a link to the Table

The table shows what percentage of graduates from these schools:

  • Got into MBB or into one of the BB IBs
  • Are now working in VC&PE, in IM, consulting, or are now an owner
  • Are CXO/Partner/Owner level in seniority
  • Are investment analysts or portfolio managers (based on keywords)

Take from it what you want, but my observations are:

  • Bocconi and LSE places very well in the top IBs and consulting companies, though Erasmus isn't far behind either
  • LSE leads in the number of graduates working in PE&VC, Erasmus is a bit ahead of Bocconi. There is also a lot of LSE graduates in the Investment Management industry
  • Surprisingly Copenhagen Business School is way above the other universities in seniority numbers with 16.7% of all graduates being either on a C-suite/Partner/Owner level, though Erasmus isn't far behind either. (thoughts on why this could be?)
  • Seems like Erasmus has the most portfolio managers based on a keyword search (although I wouldn't say this method is the most reliable)

Thoughts?

Edit: Just noticed that I left in the Owner row by itself - disregard that.
