Which US firms recruit from Queen's Commerce for Investment Banking?

Also, I'm trying to decide between QC and Ivey, and I know Ivey has an edge in terms of US recruitment, but is it a big difference? Or do I have the same shot if I go to Queen's? Some people say it is and some people say it isn't. I just wanted WSO's perspective on this.

Thanks guys.

Canadians will tell you that QC = Ivey in terms of recruiting. Americans will tell you that Ivey >>> queens. Listen to the Americans. They know a hell of a lot more about recruitment in their country than us Canadians.

I wanted to go to queens at first to, but gradually realized that Ivey will definitely give us Canadians a better shot at IB. Hope to see you at western next year.
