“Not Like Ivy at All But in Like Ivy Lists to Bolster Bruised Egos” - UC Berkeley, University of Michigan, etc. These are pretty good schools; but, are not like Ivy Leagues at all. You will be mired with school work and overworked your 4 years. Then you won’t even end up with a cushy Wall Street job."
Fascinating insight. Meanwhile, 34 of last year’s Ross’s 500 graduating BBAs joined Goldman Sachs. JP Morgan and Morgan Stanley, and another 20 ended up at other BB Investment Banks like Citi, Deutsche, BoA etc… Ross is one of the most heavily recruited programs in the country. So are McIntire and Stern.
By the way, there is nothing “cushy” about Wall Street jobs. Analysts are worked 80 hours per week and barely earn $100k/year (bonuses included). That’s not great by NYC standards. After tax and rent, analysts aren’t left with that much money.
