Hi,

Would it be worth creating a resume and submitting it here...as in, do I have any chance of going to Wall Street with an undergrad degree in Mol Bio?

I'm a junior at (Yale/Princeton/Columbia) with a 3.8. Working towards a finance minor. Varsity crew. President of two clubs. Not white.

Have you done some quantitative biology or bioinformatics coursework?

By not white do you mean Asian? If so, that doesn't really make a difference (sorry).

 

Anyone in any major can make it, provided they don't sound like a lameass during interviews, have a strong academic background, have some semblance of social life, and can prove their interest in finance. Post your resume; right now you just sound like a generic tool and that doesn't give us anything with which to "rate" you.

Since when did WSO become the CC of finance?

Currently: future neurologist, current psychotherapist Previously: investor relations (top consulting firm), M&A consulting (Big 4), M&A banking (MM)
