"This is not College Confidential and IBD is not like applying to college" was written in January 2013.
Life After Investment Banking seemed to spark a ton of conversation and definitely was the reason behind a lot of other great threads being posted... it certainly sparked a few of my own posts and was a nice change of pace from what we're all used to seeing on WSO. New perspective, whether or not it's agreed with, is never a bad thing. Gets my vote.
