BB Analysts, Did you enjoy the college experience?

is this going to verify your unnecessary work habit?

To be honest I go to a school that is notorious for deflating grades and got a 3.9+ while still very much enjoying myself. I may not have a BB position but at least I'm not as miserable as you who seeks gratification through online forums. Seriously though, if you could barely survive undergrad and feel burned out how will you feel when your work requires 2-4x as much work.

Quit before you even start. You'll thank me.

I partied my way through school... going out 3,4, 5 nights a week depending on course load, and still got to where I am now... and I don't regret any of it... wouldn't have done it any other way.

Dr.azn_stereotype:

For those who broke into investment banking, did you enjoy college and look back fondly on it? I've got an SA offer from an investment bank and I've worked my ass off during undergrad, not really enjoying school.

I feel pretty burned out already (probably bad sign) but how did you feel college upon graduation and how do you feel about it now?

You sound like you are as fun as a barrel of monkeys to work with.

^ Flame but...

IBD recruiting from a strong target school isn't really that hard at all... for most banks, it was only 2 rounds of on-campus interviews that took place on two separate days and a cumulative of something like 3 hours.

If you spent 3 years trying to get banking, well yeah, that's unfortunate.

I decided to major in finance instead of the intended physics/philosophy. Best decision of my life.

Was only ever interviewed by alums of my school. For most of my BB interviews I stayed on campus and analysts were all laid back. That's the value proposition of attending a target and doing a relatively easy major.
