- The students at top schools aren't really that intellectually impressive. So I go to a top school, so think Harvard, Yale, or Princeton. And coming in, I almost felt a sort of insecurity, because I thought that I would be up against the grinders whom I knew in high school, and against kids who went to the best boarding schools, which everyone knows prepare kids well....

Growing up, William Henry Gates III was the kid you loved to hate: With an IQ of 160, a today’s dollars-trust fund worth north of $20mm, AND politically connected parents, he was smarter than you, richer than you, and had a brighter future. *But hey, you were...

- 2020 On-Cycle Recruiting AnecdoteOn-cycle PE recruiting is a nightmare. Your sense of self-worth becomes tied to a result that is ultimately out of your hands. Rejection is inevitable and crushing.

- Why does every 2nd IBanker want to transition to PE?I've done research and spoke to a lot of people in the industry and it seems like the hours aren't that better at all from IB and the all in comp is roughly the same as in IB.

From what I understand, McKinsey probably hires the least despite being the biggest. Bain has a 50/50 model, and BCG is more in the middle of both, although they too hire more consultants than associates. On a percentage of total hires, I would say Bain >>> BCG > McKinsey
Really?? One McKinsey office (that I'm familiar with) is definitely more bottom-heavy than BCG. Might be an exception? Any McKinsey people with more info?
A friend of mine got into a McKinsey office in the East Coast, and the ratio of the newly hired analysts to associates is about 1 to 3.
pretty sure that ratio-wise BCG has the most MBAs to pre-MBAs, then McKinsey, then Bain. In absolute numbers though... Bain's class is still pretty small given that they are a smaller firm than both BCG and McKinsey
Source: had offers from all 3 MBBs and went to their sell weekends
Bain is "pyramid" structured, BCG is diamond structured, McKinsey is a mix (about 50:50)
