Have I Made the Wrong Choice?

<p>I chose UChicago over Northwestern, because I liked UChicago's personality better. But now I'm kinda worried that UChicago doesn't get recruited much by ibanks compared to Northwestern after looking at some posts here. Is that true? Thanks.</p>

<p>Don’t worry about it. There are people who would swear UChicago gets recruited more than NU, and there are people who would swear the opposite. Neither school has a huge advantage on the other in terms of ibanking placement.</p>

<p>UChicago is very highly regarded according to someone I spoke to from GS. He told me this after I informed him that I was applying to Vandy and NU so I’d like to think UChicago gets more OCR.</p>

<p>Chicago is on par (if not better) with Northwestern, in terms of IB recruiting. But from the experience of a few friends I have there, it’ll probably be harder to maintain a high gpa at Chicago than at Northwestern.</p>

<p>UChi is a great school and one that certainly get BB IB attention. NU is also a great school that gets a lot of IB attention. At the end of the day, the “fit” aspect told you to go to UChi - so just run with it! Keep your GPA up and enjoy yourself - you’ll be fine for IB.</p>

<p>PM me if you have other questions.</p>

<p>Thanks guys! That was really reassuring. It really keeps me up at night when I think about the possibility of ruining my future by choosing the wrong school.</p>
