<p>besides tat site doesnt list all the top schools, wut about amherst, dartmouth, williams, nyu stern, ucla, brown, cornell? i gues these schools sux.... sure most of them dont have business majors other than stern but i thought ibanking wasnt just about business majors? dont they recruit the best and brightest regardless of major?</p>

Anyone can get into IU, look at the schools national ranking (UIUC is way better than IU/Kelley anyway and plus I never even applied to IU). GWU has a better overall school than IU, so you're going to have to back up IU against GWU with stats. The fact is only about 3% of all of Kelley undergraduates make it into investment banking, now what is the percentage at GWUs business school?

<p>You have no clue what you are talking about, Transvaal.</p>
<p>First of all your figure is wrong. 11% of Kelley Finance majors go into ibanking:
<a href="http://ucso.indiana.edu/cgi-bin/brochures/Finance.cfm%5B/url%5D">http://ucso.indiana.edu/cgi-bin/brochures/Finance.cfm</a></p>
<p>And Not even every single Finance Major at Kelley even Wants to do ibanking. They have the sense to know that of the say 40 people Goldman Sachs hires every year as analysts more than 30 will be let go at the end of their 2 year contract.</p>
<p>And sports, just shut up, stop going after Kelley because it ranks above your pathetic Cornell's AEM. An agribusiness program critizing Kelley. Haw. Moooooooo.</p>
<p>Here's a hint for any kid looking at business schools. Listen to the BusinessWeek and USNews rankings:

Don't base your decision on some idiot's ideas on a webforum.</p>

^ tat is stupid, u determine what schools are top by one firms recruiting list which is probay not even complete not to mention most of it says TBD? ( to be determined?) i know that top firms and their recruiting list does in some way reflect what the top schools are obviously but it doesnt show the whole picture. honestly, the only ones who can really talk and actually give an INFORMED opinion are those who actualy went THROUGH the process and had an ib job or wutever bull#&$* or actually goes to a top school and has done EXTENSIVE research and has asked many PROFESSIONALS workin at these firms. everyone else saying crap is entitled to their opinion and belief but the bottom line is, its ur friggin OPINION. if ur a high school student like me, really shutup u dont know more than a college student or adult who has actual experience, dont be arrogant or foolish.

<p>Considering I'm NOT A high school student and I'm actually in college I think I have a right to speak on this.</p>
<p>It says TBD because recruiting season is over, banks recruit in the fall, when fall comes around dates WILL BE UP. The fact remains that the schools on that list ARE COMPLETE. Lazard does not bother going to Kelley, or NYU Stern, the schools on their list are very specific. </p>
<p>If you're not coming from one of those schools then you WILL NOT get a job with them.</p>
<p>Look, it's pretty obvious you don't know too much on this topic. Out of all the major i-banks, the two most prestigious places to land a job with would be Lazard and Goldman Sachs, the fact of the matter is that because Lazard is a boutique investment bank it's much smaller than GS, so they're accepting a fraction of the people. That means everyone single person hired is going to be looked at as being phenomenal. Also the way the firm is structured, you're a generalist, that leads to more deal exposure on your end and you get to familiarize yourself with a variety of industries, not like GS where you're in industry specific groups. The analysts there have a great reputation on the street and end up having great exit opps available, possibly better than GS.</p>
<p>I'm not being 'arrogant' or 'foolish'.</p>
<p>I looked at the IU resume book and I only see about half the kids who even got jobs in IBD were placed in New York....this uh yea kid is an absolute idiot</p>
<p>ill be honest, for the intelligence level associated with IU kelley, placement is not bad..but lets be honest here..you are never going to be considered in the same regards as a top 25 school - I am sorry about that; you probably should have worked harder in high school.</p>
<p>actually just went through the entire resume book (the resumes themselves) and any of the students who even have jobs at a BB are working in non-ibd positions like global private client services. The only reason I am saying all of this is because I don't want people on this board to make a mistake and choose IU because they think it will help them land a top ibd job. If you can get into a more prestigious school you should because it will go a lot further. Obviously UHYEH is insecure about IU or his choice to go there and that is why he is so defensive. If any of you have taken a psychology class you will realize that. If he was confident in his choice he would not be on this board supporting it so adamantly.</p>
<p>They're not really comparable. IU is a nationally recognized Business school and earns the respect of most major companies, including some key IBanks. One cannot say the same of GW. Don't get me wrong, GW is a good university, particularly for students who are interested in international relations or for students who insist on living in the capital. But IU is a better overall university. It has a nicer campus, better athletics, more spirit, a better alumni network, better departments accross most academic disciplines etc... In terms of B school, few people would leave Indiana out of the top 20.</p>
<p>dcfa ur absolutely right :), tat was just my opinion and like u said maybe onli lazard recruits at those SPECIFIC schools. i really wouldnt know sorry</p>

<p>Haha, the key word here is FINANCE MAJORS. So yeah I was right, about 1 - 3% of KELLEY gets recruited. </p>
<p>There was a thread posted a while back called "investment banking list of recruiting schools." Look for that thread and read it, you wont find IU practically anywhere... but you will see UIUC on there a lot with the regulars.</p>
<p>transvaal you still have not shown anything that shows actual numbers UIUC places in ibanking
Are you kidding me you are going to take a stab at NYU Stern, that school would blow most every school out of the water when it comes to ibanking, i cannot beleive you actually made that pathetic comparison...and sports there is only about one kid going into gpc...everyone else is going into ibd. Some may have interned in these areas since its on their resume and it is PAST experience displayed, not where they are heading into (the topic of this conversation). Its pointless arguing with you you can so all you want but you have no actual evidence to back up what you are saying, hey maybe we can talk about psychology and try to turn away from the topic THAT YOUR STATEMENTS ARE COMPLETELY FALSE.</p>
<p>heh im goin to take the microecon AP exam in like 1 hour and 30minutes, wish me luk u crazy business people :)</p>
<p>OOO i see, this explains it sports is part of cornell AEM, no wonder hes so ****ed off, i would be too if i studied my entire life to get into cornell's business program and to find a bunch of state schools like IU in the middle of nowhere are ranked higher than me too. It must suck to be a disgrace to all the ivy's can't even make it into the top 10, I feel your pain man, but maybe you can put your school of agriculture education to use when franks pig farm merges with tony's apple orchard.</p>
<p>yea it sucks that all indiana university people who finished in the bottom decile of their respective high school classes getting jobs ahead of Cornell kids..im sure thats the case..ur an idiot..im done with this post.an absolute waste of time..think whatever you want</p>
<p>have fun working in atlanta big guy</p>
<p>im sure haas and georgetown are nervous as well that you are going to take jobs from them because you are ranked higher..they are probably peeing their pants let me tell you</p>
<p>listen, i apologize for fighting about this...we are wasting everyones time arguing...good luck to you and i truly mean that</p>
<p>that wasnt sarcastic either</p>
