Hi, Currently, I am a junior at UCLA with a degree in business economics, minor in math and accounting. 3.98 GPA. Is there anyway I can get into Sales and Trading out of college? I am not sure if UCLA is even much of a semitarget or not. What would be my best bet into breaking into the field?
Thanks

3.98? That's it. You're fucked.
i don't think S&T recruits at UCLA but with those stats i'm sure you can talk to the banking recruiters and tell them you want trading
You've been a member for nearly 40 weeks and haven't ever seen GPA discussions, a bit incredulous.
I could be wrong.
You've got a great shot, get some experience first. Where have you interned over the past summer? TA, anything?
