0 Definitely been better. Vandy has been trending up while UVA has been trending down. Analyst 1 in IB-M&A
0 Do GS. Maximize prestige early on. Think about what impresses your grandpa’s friends. HYPSM, GS, McKinsey, or just boat loads of verifiable cash (quant / exited startup). Analyst 1 in IB - Gen

0 I don’t think stern is in the same boat as Ross and Kelley lol… look at placement quality rooseveltfan
0 🫡 SOFRsoGood
0 Williams will always be seen as a tad better. No one really debates it. rooseveltfan
0 Right. But figured it'd be best to get a more nuanced, less generic perspective from professionals in the industry based on how they may have made their decision and what they've come to find over their career. Prospect in IB - Gen
0 Congratulations on Cornell StandardHardo
0 Stop shilling your stupid shit mate Intern in IB - Restr
0 You need to typically be very bright to do well in quant or engineering. Everyone would like to work 40 hour weeks and earn 300k+ out of undergrad but it simply isn't that easy. Prospect in IB - Restr
0 Larping already, perfect fit for Wharton/Stern Intern in IB - Gen
0 arossi11637
0 You can have two corporate jobs as long as the hours overlap and you don’t let them know. arossi11637
0 Intern in PropTradtheyll get liquidity - IPO is p much guarenteed PrivateTechquity 🚀🚀🚀
0 Nothing, I’m just bored but my roommate shares your view so I come on here to find out why people keep hyping up IB as a search for truth. arossi11637
0 You are just listing a bunch of company names, saying these are "true" exit ops and asking people to take your word for it. Why are these "true" but e.g. working at Blackstone isn't? nutmegger189
0 CONRATS ON CORNELL! Associate 2 in IB - Restr

0 Sorry you didn’t get the offer bro  VP in IB - Gen
0 Yeah good points. Idk where to put the people I met btw well-rounded vs high IQ people. But I don't think it really matters. pbandjpartners
0 Vanderbilt will hands down be several notches more fun than any ivy. For consulting - Vanderbilt places incredibly well. The founder of Bain was a Vandy alum as well. Business School in Non-profit
0 In the industry verticals I'm in it's all about "community" so there's lot of semi-casual events where you are there to meet people.  pbandjpartners
0 Me saying “it doesn’t pay well per hour, you make twice the salary for twice the hours” ALREADY MEANS you make twice the money. arossi11637
0 If you are folding M&A product into coverage (both US and EMEA I am assuming) then what happens, M&A product guys just get randomly allotted into new coverage teams like the draft lmao Analyst 1 in IB - Cov
0 Are you disingenuous and bad faith enough, losing the argument this badly, to now claim that I implied bankers work twice the hours but don’t make twice the pay? arossi11637
0 Getting IB is 100% networking though. They don't expect any skills whatsoever because the technicals are a joke. So it's a social competition at its core. RandomMonkey0628
0 Not able to give too much feedback on that but just wanted to congratulate you on the vision and the focus, you're going places mate. rough diamond
0 I went to a target and I can 100% confirm McKinsey brand name is top tier PhantomGhost
0 You have hijacked my thread to make crazy comments about construction workers... SOFRsoGood
0 Cornell now has a respectable ranking across every reputable ranking. It also genuinely has strong academics and placements across several different industries.  Associate 2 in PE - Other
0 you need to answer the q about how you make 80k as a manager in consulting. who are you consulting. the trees SOFRsoGood
0 That can never happen again - I've seen analysts fire for much lessThat's a failure on your ASO's part. Would've been fired too Associate 1 in PE - Other
0 UofT and Laurier have similar placements on Bay St, UofT slightly better on Wall St, you'll have more fun at Laurier, and Mac gets you none of the above WaffleFalafel
0 remove franker014124
0 KeyBanc? Analyst 1 in IB-M&A
0 Dude why would a team not have faith in an associate who already did their time in the AN position, successfully exited to buyside, and then came back to a better bank? rolo25
0 Another firm that is lucky that PE funds take 10+ years to die. Quirky (in the same way that Monomoy is just a bunch of weirdos who banded together and coined their eccentricity as being a "good culture" firm). Moonshallow
0 For London :  Top tier Bocconi/LSE/Oxbridge/SciencesPo/St gallen 2nd tier SSE Intern in HF - Other
0 rooseveltfan, 188m, thereisnochoice, and sm17 are stern shills and are probably not four unique people. you see them in the same posts jerking off stern while bashing the same set of schools and straight larping. Associate 1 in PE - Other
0 This guy is hitting mental illness levels close to that Britannia guy who was spamming the Harvard vs Oxford vs Cambridge BS, while fully being a student at Wharton. Analyst 1 in IB-M&A
0 you aren't entering a MM HF directly out of undergrad so I wouldn't worry about it  PhantomGhost
0 Since no one else responded, I'm an incoming HBS student. My sense is HBS is better for everything other than VC/startups. BuySideIntern
0 No, I got offers from Tiger cubs, top LO and a MFPE direct investing role back when those programs were not built out all from a non target with a 3.0 GPA. Principal in HF - Other
0 Atlas Shrugged  tryyuav
0 Maybe 20% of people who ever graduate from Wharton and Stanford hit 7 figures a year. Less than 10% will hit 8. And less than 5% will do it at the age that you know them. Congrats on high school junior! 188m
0 I went to Harvard PhantomGhost
0 You should be downvoted on sight. You’re a high schooler, 17 or 18 years old, spreading your garbage takes and opinions all over a website meant to help people. You obviously have several burner accounts too. Associate 1 in PE - Other
0 I went to HBS so the interviews are mostly fit-based, good luck at deloitte/ubs PhantomGhost
0 Everyone knows the guy with 0 game and a slightly above his level overbearing mid girlfriend who is rapidly depreciating while consuming all his money and emotional energy. Associate 3 in PE - LBOs
0 no I quit my job PhantomGhost
0 Probably 3rd best group behind industrials and LF, although they have conducted junior layoffs recently so RO rate might be low Intern in IB - Gen
0 S: Q, GS TMT, MS MP Big gap T1: EVR, JPM Gap T2: CVP, MOE, LAZ, Citi, BofA T3: BARC, Tidal, JEFF  T4: DB, UBS, PJT, PWP T5: RBC, WF Intern in IB - Cov

0 Some people just can't adapt. Don't worry about their opinions.  ioncewenttoschool
0 Yeah genuinely surprised at the pushback on just the premise of my question. Associate 1 in RE - Comm
0 Whats the difference between a quant trading role at these firms you mentioned (JS, Optiver, SIG, Cit Sec, ...) vs like sell side trading at banks (GS/JPM/MS/...)? Intern in S&T - Other
0 It's almost like you can use AI as a tool rather than a crutch, kind of like how we still learn arithmetic despite the invention of calculators. Associate 1 in RE - Comm
0 UBS and DB left Houston long ago lol Intern in IB - Gen
0 It lets people get away with the bare minimum without risk of being fired. Raijin
0 Nope, I have run tests on job cost budgeting AI systems and they are within 3 - 5% of actual project costs. The human budgeting teams were 9% off for that same project.  ioncewenttoschool
0 Thank you for posting and I resonate hard.  Analyst 1 in IB - Cov
0 It’s not even close per capita wise. NW is at least 1-2 tiers above Vandy in terms of prestige/placement Associate 3 in IB-M&A
0 hi, i know this was from a while ago but any updates? as i am in a similar position... sz10101
0 In London? No one. The banks are still dominant in London. Evercore is closer to Rothschild than the 3 dominant US BBs. loser1234
0 We can close this thread. Odog has balanced the scales of truth, and the nonchalant Luddite CRE gets the short stick. Associate 1 in RE - Comm
0 Bull shit. EVR is a step below Big 3 (GS/MS/JPM) in Europe, Full stop! davani1420
0 Lots of friends at Mecor SPL. Can't speak for the others. in the short term, comp is great - similar to banking at the analyst level. WLB is honestly similar to IB. Analyst 1 in IB-M&A
0 Why are you playing the victim as if there was some ad hominem attack? It's okay to stay silent when faced with irrefutable reasoning. Associate 1 in RE - Comm
0 Nasty place. You had better enjoy being a bot boy.  874-basic
0 no Sir PrivateTechquity... how u dare to even raise proposal to strip him him of title of master of universe, of big money, of big prestige... you are evil man... GS under Blankfein
0 loser1234: In London? No one. Analyst 1 in PE - LBOs
0 Not necessarily. Associate 1 in IB-M&A
0 IU sends one to PJT, and none to EVR RX Prospect in IB-M&A
0 It's a strong target. There are plenty of UK Uni rankings on this site, so I suggest looking at them but for Undergrad it's: Oxford = Cambridge LSE UCL Warwick Imperial Analyst 1 in IB-M&A

0 So the stereotypes on finance bros are very true... coffeechatsfordays

0 i wonder what slur you are Analyst 2 in IB - Gen
0 Effectively exact same thread was posted 2 years ago: WSOBURNER69
0 It’s over bud! Intern in IB - Gen
0 The new update with Felix is actually really solid for a lot of things like putting together buyer lists, updated pages, identifying issues in the model (why it’s not tying out etc) Analyst 1 in IB - Cov.
0 Nothing was rigged.  It was not AIPAC. Soros_
0 This is always how it’s been. It comes down to your willingness to sacrifice exits & interesting work flows for better wlb/hourly-basis pay. U made it this far. I’d just try for buyside exits atp rolo25
0 Do UVA - why is this even a discussion. Also Charlottesville punches above its weight class and I know people who’ve moved there from NYC and like it. Intern in IB - Gen
0 Cambridge isn’t in the same league as Harvard and Oxford, let alone Wichita State. Associate 1 in PE - Growth
0 When did I say anything about boots on the ground or regime change? usernameladiesman217
0 The stance of "AI is total bullshit" is really the most asinine take ever. It has such little upside, let alone merit, that I just can't comprehend how that could be someone's unironic opinion. Associate 1 in RE - Comm
0 You've spent ~20 years climbing a mountain. How about pausing to enjoy the view before you get back to hiking? Count WACCula
0 I think PJT RSSG needs to be way higher, CVP as well at least Tier 2 if not 1, and on the contrary, I think Lazard should be in Tier 1 but also because they've been around for so long, many legacy MFs have built strong rel Intern in IB-M&A
0 The answer is that they don’t do any of these things “reliably” via a model. Research Analyst in AM - FI
0 Bro this is why I asked that one kid who saw this guy at Wharton to doxx this fucker. Some people never change. Doxx this guy so his friends know how much of a freak he is. Associate 1 in PE - Other
0 Yeah but if you're stupid enough to put it in writing you deserve what's coming to you Intern in Consulting
0 I was under the impression that PC shops can pay out carry, annually. Analyst 1 in IB - Cov
