<p>Alright, to refine: It was meant to be an all else equal statement of averages – of a typical student with solid stats but not great experience. Someone who is more middle of the pack (majority of students). It was not meant to speak to extremes.</p>

<p>Top BBs are not the only companies that come to recruit. There are MANY other firms, lower BBs/non-BBs/elite boutiques/MMs/other boutiques that come to recruit at Ross as well. Landing an internship with these companies is a great stepping stone to moving up the ladder come full-time recruiting. It is with these types of companies that the advantage is exploited greatly. The 3.7, nothing-great-on-the-resume BBAs have much better shots than the 3.8 nothing-great-on-the-resume LSA kids (far more common scenario than 4.2 BBA vs. 3.9 LSA both w/ relevant internship experience competing for Morgan Stanley).</p>
