Yeah who tf cares lmao. No firms is outsourcing their hiring decisions based on a magazine ranking
What’s the Lehigh rep? Feel like they’re placing more students recently.
It’s an average liberal arts school (I think LAC at least) populated by people who did averagely for whatever reason in HS but are generally wealthy and connected
One thing to keep in mind that WSO users seem to forget is the world is not all Wall Street type of jobs. Looking at these rankings through the lens of a finance career is shortsighted.
These universities also comprise of engineering departments, theater schools, English classes, chemistry labs, etc. They don't just exist so students can graduate, get two years of IB, and then jump to the buyside.
Lots of people pursue careers outside of finance, like medicine, law, or academia. Comparing schools via this ranking on how much of a target they are is missing a lot of the big picture of why universities exist and who they serve.
JHU and NorthWestern definitely paid to be that high
good luck getting into a T20 with your 1480 :)
Congrats on NorthWestern
I'm from 🇨🇭
