Queens Honors Economics - Banking or Consulting?

Is it possible to get into banking or consulting from economics at Queens. I know Queens business school is highly recruited but are economics students as recruited. Can somebody from Queens or who has finished up queens comment?

Thanks!

 

Okay, a simple answer to these questions is:

"People from far lower ranked schools than yours have managed to get a BB position"

So don't stress, improve your overall CV and you're one happy camper :) Remember, it's not just marks or the name of the university on your resume, it's a combination of everything. I didn't go to a top school, but I started my own company when I was in college (something different than other candidates). So try doing something "different" and even if you major in "Underwater Basket Weaving", you can land a job in BB.

Dude, Underwater Basket Weaving sounds like a bitch of a major
