Chicago and Columbia, Tulane for energy
would also like to add....NYU, Penn, MIT, UT
Thanks.. like the finance and economics program at columbia? Does the actual program matter much?
what about wharton? thought they were great for pretty much all finance.
Penn = Wharton
I would say it's brooklyn. The old school "Poor, Hungry, and Smart" still works wonder in today's trading world.
JUST DON'T act anything like Shia Ledouche
The 4 b-schools that most consistently land more than 3% of their class in S&T are Chicago Booth, Wharton, Columbia and Stern. This is not an exclusive list - last year, Morgan Stanley and Citi did S&T recruitment at Kellogg. I'm not sure how many they hired, and whether they were hiring more brokers or more traders (I think MS said they were looking for up to 8). I remember seeing a video of a guy at HBS who was clearly able to land interviews and job offers to be a salesman at a BB, as a 2nd year student, so I imagine that at Harvard and Stanford, if you show interest, you can get an interview, even though they're not S&T feeders.
Beyond that, it's hard to establish which one is the "best", as certain BBs have their own quirks and preferences, but that's at a micro level, so you'd have to ask people who work at these firms for some insider views on their preferences.
Anyone?
