<p>Chance me for NYU Stern ED</p>
<p>Also,</p>
<p>How hard is it for Stern Alums to get jobs in LA?</p>
<p>Thanks, cause I heard that if you go to NYU Stern as opposed to USC Marshall or Berkeley Haas, it is hard to land a gig on the west cost, LA area to be exact. I would like to work in advertising/marketing/iBanking, so any input would be grand. Also, the chance part. I am prepared to really immerse myself in debt for NYU, and HOPEFULLY its worth it. What are my chances for ED?</p>

first in family to go to university
Schools was alright. It had a magnet program where basically the 175 kids that were in it were considered a shoe in for 4 year universities. About 400 kidsin total went to a university with prob. 100 going to top ranked schools (UC's and above). There are about 1300, yes 1300 in the graduating class. Sends a few grads to top schools
