Second semester of junior year, 4.0 gpa from semi-target, signed internship with supermajor in trading group. I've pretty much lost motivation to do anything haha..would you guys still focus on trying to maintain a solid GPA at this point? I heard it becomes useless after getting your first job...and it feels like the reward/time consumed ratio is incredibly low. Only scenario I can think of GPA still coming into play is if I either don't like trading this summer/don't get offered full time and maybe want to lateral over to ibanking or some other industry.
Thoughts?
And by maintain I mean still keep a 4.0..sorry I forgot to mention that!
Never hurts to keep it up in the off chance you pursue b school down the road. With that in mind, even if it falls to 3.8 that won't hurt you in the slightest.
May be helpful to keep up for b-school down the road, although no school seems to have too high of a GPA average. They seem to be much more about the gmat scores.
might be the humble brag post of the month!
Gotcha thanks guys..business school didn't come across my mind but that is a good reason to not completely bomb this semester + senior year. I don't think there are too many people in trading with MBA's though?
