How much does an M7 MBA matter in the buyside?
Hey guys,
So how much does an M7 MBA matter really for getting into a good buyside shop? In terms of life after undergrad, and then maybe a few years in banking/ER (and maybe 2 years in PE, maybe not) a lot of people apply to an MBA, hoping to land at an M7. But really, how much does this matter when trying to getting into a good buyside role, say in T. Rowe or Point72? Would a top 20 MBA be enough for this? I understand the connections aspect of the M7 that you make, but other than that, does it really even affect your career moving forward versus going to a top 20 MBA program?
I'm no expert, but I feel like the more competitive something is, the more selective they can be. Since the buy side is one of the more selective arenas in the economy, I wouldn't be surprised if they had their pick of Harvard MBA's. Not the mention - it doesn't hurt with sales to have employees with prestigious degrees.
