+-1 They can hire Jamie Dimon, David Solomon, Ken Moelis, Bruce Wassertain, Michael Klein, Lloyd Blankfain or Joe Perella it won’t matter. Wells Fargo will never be a BB! Analyst 2 in IB - Cov
+-1 Search fund HFPM15
+-1 Emory>UT> WashU=BC> the others Atlcalling
+-1 reach out probs starting aug/sept. Never too early to start w techs, but tbh unless ur targetting EBs, even if you'd never taken a single finance class in ur life u could learn most of what you need in less than a week Prospect in IB-M&A

+-1 The most elite and difficult/hairy PE cases go to M more often than bain. bain pumps more and has a more formally dedicated practice towards PE. Culture matters but is subjective. Analyst 1 in Consulting

+-1 No offense, this is a bad list. Curious how you came to these conclusions. Best groups are GS, JPM, Centerview and now Lazard in the Taetle era. Citi and BoFa are still fine as well, but below the prior.  Business School in IB - Gen
