Can one succeed without consulting or IBD?
Hi guys:
I know this is a really stupid question, and i will get mocked for it. but i didn't do well in my school's ocr this year,and i might come out with no offer in ibd or consulting....i fee like i have been conditioned to think about the right track, and now i'm totally off from it.....
is it possible to still succeed even if one could not start in ibd or consulting? i'm just really scared because i seem to be off the track now when everyone else is on it...
any input would be appreciate it (it would be nicer if you won't be too mean)...thanks!
99% of the fortune 500 CEOs didn't start out in consulting/IBD...I think you will be ok
But yes, OP will be fine if he doesn't start his career in IBD or Consulting. There's always b-school to give you a reset, but some people do very well starting in rotational programs at f500 companies.
No, but you might be in trouble if you've yet to figure out that success is subjective.
No.
Is this a serious question? There are so many high paying jobs out there assuming you don't take the entrepreneurial route. Don't lose hope.
Get a masters in Petroleum Engineering.
But seriously, plenty of people have been in equivalent or worse situations and come out "successful." Sometimes the path to "success" is longer than one hopes, but giving up or growing depressed isn't going to get you that offer.
gs tmt or /wrists
Haha
No, no one has ever done well in life without one of those things. Literally no one, ever.
Get some perspective kid, Jesus.
