What schools to apply to for West Coast?
If I wanted to work/live on the west coast, primarily around southern california where it is nice and sunny (also where I am from) what are the best schools to apply to?
My list right now is:
Stanford
Berkeley
UCLA
University of Texas
Should I put USC in there?
My end goal is to become an investment banking associate in southern california, and possibly maybe San Francisco.
My current situation and undergrad stats are:
Electrical engineer in Silicon Valley 1st year on the job. (1 years experience so far). 3.01 major gpa and 3.44 overall gpa in electrical engineering from UCSD.
If I had to pick 6 schools to apply to, what should I go for?
Thanks!
I know Oregon undergrad is considered target/semi-target (depending on who you ask), idk about their MBA program, but you may want to research that and throw it up on the list. And your list you have there is already in a good order of pedigree I think. Just for what it's worth, I don't have that much knowledge on the subject.
Are you on crack? Nobody considers Oregon undergrad a target/semi-target. It's a shit school with an 80% acceptance rate. Probably sent 1 kid to a BB in the past five years.
I would generally assume that as well, but I have several friends with top-tier banking jobs that would suggest otherwise. They seem to make it out to be a semi-target, perhaps they were just good at networking however. As I said, just throwing some information out for what it is worth.
I'm guessing you're trying to transfer? I'd suggest some of the LACs in California (namely Pomona), but doubt they take transfers. Should definitely add USC.
Never mind. Just realized this is the business school not undergrad forum.
Why would you not add SC?!
That's a good list And should definitely add USC because it's well-connected and does place into IB
We're still talking about an MBA here right? - Just to make it clear I got my B.S. in electrical engineering. Much appreciated.
M7 + Haas and UCLA. I'm not exactly sure why McCombs is on your list if you're interested in working in California.
