<p>Brooklynborndad: I’m not sure about Harvard but traditionally the largest number of BS graduates from MIT have traditionally gone to financial sectior (IB mainly).
You can check the data on the web site</p>

<p>the most recent information for 2009 graduates shows that the down turn in financial jobs have negatively impacted MIT placement. Now magamgement and consulting service s has replaced finance as the major employement sector.</p>
<p>You can see for yourself that a disproportionate number of MIT BS graduates have been going to IB. I think this trend is equally accurate for Harvard.</p>
