Free IBANK Guide: Provided by Merrill Lynch

<p>MER was offering this for free on their trading contest.. but I don't see it anymore.</p>

<p>Anyway, instead of paying $30 for a Vault guide.. I think this gets the job done. I have all the Vault/Wetfeet ibank guides.. so gonna pass this along =)</p>

<p>Enjoy & Good Luck ibanking!</p>

<p>wolffy, you're in college but what do you do?</p>

<p>I'm a sophomore with 2 majors: Communication (BA) & Management (BBA). I am also working towards a minor in Information Technology, and a certificate for film.</p>

<p>I'm a web designer, a campus representative for Dell, and I work with several publishing companies on employment books and their respective websites. I'm only a sophomore, but I got into the whole Ibank craze from my friends at Bowdoin + Harvard. I graduated from Boston Latin School, which is kind of equivalent to Phillips Exeter/Roxbury Latin/Andover.</p>

<p>I'll be interning this year at BlackRock/MLIM (Merrill Lynch Investment Managers) as a technology intern, but was called by Banc of America Securities for an analyst position.</p>

<p>I go to Umass Amherst (not a great or decent school like yours.. but it's a full ride/honors/this and that)... but one day, I hope to go to Cornell's CALS, my dream school. (And maybe MIT Sloan, HBS, or Haas, or Stern for MBA)</p>

<p>cool..cheers to umass...I thought you wanted to do Ibanking, why would you want to go to Cornel CALS?</p>

<p>Statistical data show it's the most likely/easiest school (within Cornell, the friendliest transfer Ivy) you will transfer into; since it is government subsidized/funded, not a private institution like CAS. I'm either staying here to finish these majors, or losing credits to finish a COMM major at CALS.</p>

<p>Also, to be an analyst at an Ibank (basically "trainee"), you don't necessarily have to be a business/finance/accounting major. As long as you are good with quantitative data, are good with people, + whole package, you're fine. Many CEO's/MD's at bulge bracket firms are Biology majors!</p>

<p>okay, so can you explain the whole package to me please?</p>

<p>A hard worker, can work well in teams (especially at Goldman-Sachs), can multi-task, computer savvy, and here's some more:</p>
