I'm noticing a pattern, do most of the top IB offers go to attractive chicks?

I'm a high school senior who will be entering a target this fall. I was poking around LinkedIn to see what sort of clubs, ECs, etc. incoming i-bankers did, and it seems pretty obvious the girls skew towards being very attractive. I then looked at other target colleges c/o 2018 and again, the incoming bankers feature many pretty females. I'm not doubting their GPA or whatever else, but it does make me look at my college's employment surveys a little differently. Is my inference wrong or is this pretty well known?

 

yes and no.

It is a known fact attractive / leaner people are perceived to be more intelligent and in the case of figure, more hardworking and possessing more self control. That being said, BBs dont look at someone and deny them employment because of their physical appearance. They are committed to hiring people that have a good pedigree and can work the hours / deliver results.

I am permanently behind on PMs, it's not personal.
